Porsanal Gad

Gad, ta youh, is man in skai
Lookin down a youh wit lav
Fram clowd
Clorse, buh steel youh nat meetin him.
Gad, ta me, is air I breat.
Is de soil, trees, fruit, wata.
Dem ankles wat crak an clikin
Is mai very bein.
Witout It, how I cutd liv?
Cos fantastic Gad dat I liv an
Dis wundaful Gad I harvest
Beautiful Gad I giv birt to
Youh, capitalisin de werd ‘Gad’
Yet, do youh nat noe wat Gad is?

This is awesome, really cool + thoughtful too. Makes one want to read it out loud, which I just did, twice.

Beautiful!

For those who have difficulty reading it,
keep trying 'cos it's half the fun!

If you still can't read it...

This is what it says to me:

Personal God

God to you, is a man in the sky
Looking down on you with love
From a cloud.
Close, but you’re still not meeting him.
God to me, is the air I breathe
Is the soil, trees, fruit, water.
Them ankles what crack and clickin’
Is my very being.
Without it, how could I live?
‘Cos fantastic God that I live and
This wonderful God I harvest
Beautiful God I give birth to…
You are capitalizing the word ‘God’
Yet, do you not know what God is?

Brilliant. So unique and different.
Strange idea but works extremely well.
