Fickeled Faith

by Treischel

Fickled Faith
(5-7-5 Poetry Suite)


What you cannot see
Becomes liability
If you don't have Faith

Many mysteries
Can become realities
When you have true Faith

Waved the Earth goodbye
By believing man could fly
The result of Faith

Watch an object fall
When you push it off a wall
Gravity of Faith

What duplicity
About electricity
Had there been no Faith

Deep humility
Makes the best Humanity
When you trust in Faith

Not a big surprise
If you can't believe your eyes
Then you must have Faith

So, keep Faith alive
Then free spirits will survive
There's freedom in Faith

Recognized


There are many kinds of faith: religious, scientific, and humanitarian, for example. I've tried to capture that here.

These stanzas are written in a 5-7-5 format, but are not intended to be haiku or senryu.

The picture juxtaposes Science and Religion. The photograph is one of the author's.
