In the realm of the mind, where thoughts roam free,
Two books of the Almighty's works shone
bright and clear,
One of faith, one of wisdom, both divine and fair,
Stealing them away, would be a most daring feat,
A challenge to the heart, and a test of will,
To see if one could carry the weight of both.
The first book, "Faith", a tome of scripture and lore,
Told the tales of the ages, of gods and wars,
Of prophets and messengers, who brought the word,
Of a promise of hope, of a better life,
A guide for the soul, in times of strife.
The second book, "Wisdom", a compendium of thought,
Contained the secrets of the ages, brought to light,
Of the workings of the mind, of the nature of truth,
Of the human condition, with all its plight,
A testament to the power, of knowledge and youth.
To steal these books, would be a great and
noble deed,
A challenge to the self, a test of creed,
To prove oneself worthy, of such great works of art,
To possess them both, would be a prize,
a heart's part.
But alas, the books remain, on their lofty shelf,
A dream, a hope, a quest, for one to self,
For in the realm of the mind, the books are free,
To all who seek, to read and see,
The beauty of the Almighty's works, so divine.
So let us not steal, these books of great worth,
But let us seek, to understand, and to be of service,
For the greatest reward, is the knowledge we gain,
And the wisdom we find, in the Almighty's holy name.
   When the terms such as 'omnipotence, omniscience' are added, then the result is
In secret, I steal away,
To read two books of His works,
The Almighty's might and grace,
In every line, a new face.
His omnipotence, a fire,
Burns bright, my heart's desire,
To know His will, my goal,
In every word, a soul.
