This should be read at a leisurely pace. Each stanza should be savoured for its succulent images that come to mind. An ode to an almighty, a creator who is omnipresent. His touch is everywhere, seen through the naked eye and felt subconsciously. This is a love poem from a subject drunken in the throes of such greatness, dedicated to the one and only relevant idea that deserved such adulation.

This read requires patience to fathom the underlying beauty. A worthwhile effort.
