Inspired by "The Archeologist" "Faith Unearthed" How many poetic rules did I break?

Faith Unearthed

The bones of an Angel - the bones of a Saint,

Barely enough for the Artist to paint

Guided by innocents - Discovered by chance,

Could not be embellished could not be enhanced

We argue the Truth while ignoring the facts,

Blinded by opinion rather than follow the tracks

Found in the earth and written in books,

We've seen in the past - we know how it looks

Still hidden so deep in the mysteries of time,

What guides our thoughts and makes up our mind

Why do we wonder when all has been said,

That the proof of life is only left by the dead

While in our hearts we all feel the same,

After two thousand years the faith still remains

The bones of an Angel - the bones of a Saint,

Barely enough for the Artist to paint

    Mr. Ripple

    First, glad to see you back.

    Where are all the People? Wow.

    This was very cool. I am sure "The Archeologist"

    will like it as well. Can you imagine a billionaire

    hating the fact people believe so much he is out

    to disprove His existence, and low and behold

    comes The Garden of Eden and the blood of

    Christ.

    Good write, especially in such a short time period.

    'the proof of life is only left by the dead'...I must disagree with that part of a remarkable couplet poem.

    I see and hear proofs of life being given every day in this marsh.

    From gulls to gators.
