Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFG HIJKL MNOPQ QRSITSU VWDXYZA2B2C2

Every morning when i ariseA
Always in my hearts are the many questionsB
This i carry from childC
And now that i am a manD
After eating and even for the joy ofE
Waking after slumberF
Whom do i give thanks toG
-
To a God i was born and raised existedH
Even yet u have not encountered himI
Nor' to the universe which dim it fitJ
Of my importanceK
For i know a GodL
-
I know a god with eight armsM
I know one who seems omnipresentN
I know one who speaks through booksO
Another who speaks only in watersP
There is another who neither speak nor listenQ
-
But i must pay obeisance to only oneQ
For the others would be jealous of my soulR
Each followers claiming originalityS
If they see this they tag me frenemyI
For they are first my friends before their creedsT
Turn them against me and humanityS
So they lost the touchU
-
My father never gave me the answer beforeV
His death on a Sunday morning but he taughtW
Me to be a manD
I carry this same question now that i am oldX
For whom do i give thanks to after each breatheY
After each gulpZ
All the gods available are importedA2
The one after my color and race is painted diabolicalB2
So i carry my questions to the graveC2
