On Contemplating God the Trinity

Do you ever think about God and how everything came into being, why we even exist, and if God should exist and be the originator of all, would He make Himself known to us? Annette Allen's poetry answers these questions. Revelatory are her poems firmly sourced in biblical Christianity. These awesome themes are visualised by many styles of poetry: classic structures and modern free style. They are employed in exquisite description and analogy. This treasure trove is placed into chapters exploring God's being and His Trinity, and then His works, including creation and the sending of His Son, Jesus. Finally, His purposes through His church are illuminated, with love as their resting plank and ground. Her poems invite a deep dive into God and His salvation.

"Think not of the love that pats or preens fine,

or feigns int'rest for a time, fickle so

deftly presumptuous, but Love Divine

Amazingly Come Down, Excelling lo

all True-loves, Strong in Purpose, One Who Son

Is, Was Made flesh....." The Incarnation Sonnets

"The trees wanted to go dark and they did -

let go into black, the sea went faded blue then

silver, so night came helm-like

over things that are not God.....

Now, there Is One Who Speaks - and Muzzles

the wind, His Word Is Pure Act. He Lets

the beauty of things run, their excellence Endows....

He is The Son

The Everlasting One, Son Of God Beloved...." Sometimes We See Glory
