For All The Hers and Hims

The blue tulle where dusk’s crepuscule gathered earth in its folds
Begins to thin; the din that daylight wakens starts to stir
Yon bar layered with stars grows dim and dons flushed pinks and golds
Once more the door of mercy metes time’s streets to him-and-her

This burial place of human race is decked with dashing feet
The gateway to what-waits-to-be rouses earth’s eastward scrim
Ho, ho, here’s to a showdown where woe and wonder compete
As Mercy pours light to time’s corridors for her-and-him

A canvas splashed with answers that we cannot comprehend
Clashes with questionnaires we clutch in vain like paper gods,
While earth showcases manifold Masterpieces, my friend
And woos us to trust in the Artist all nature applauds

Time’s seasoned telltale signs keens expectation’s catalyst
Where That-and-This still startles him-and-her with life’s Meanwhile
God keep us on our tippy-toes with rose and amethyst
And points our faces upward to anoint us with His smile

Einstein’s views about religious belief have been collected from interviews and
original writings. He called himself an agnostic, while disassociating himself
from the label atheist. He said he believed in the “pantheistic” God of Baruch
Spinoza, but not in a personal god, a belief he criticized. Einstein once wrote,
“I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but expressed it clearly”.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Einstein

“The ideas of a personal God is quite alien to me and seems even naïve”.
~Albert Einstein - December 17, 1952
