The Bomb That Blew Up God,

between good and evil with a surprise ending.

ON A MEDIEVAL PAINTING OF THE FALL OF MAN
The Angel turned them out of Paradise,
And God withdrew within.
A glorious Realm receded from their Eyes.
They shrank from loving Him.
The World is like a Darker Sphere until
We meet His Love within.
An Angel full of Grace is waiting still
To lead us back to Him.

I wrote this poem in 1980 on returning from a trip to Greece and seeing a small, Medieval, Italian painting in a museum in the south of France, depicting the story line in the poem. The presence of God in the painting was uncanny.
