Is language god?

I am an English teacher
But I don’t know what language is
Could you tell me what it is please?
Is it the integration of skills?
Or the collection of poems?
Some say it is communication
Or others say it is thought
Is it a mere sound Or a sign?
What about phonetics
Or semantics?
Grammar and vocabulary
Too fascinate me
A student asked me
Sir, Does the forest
Consists of trees?
Or do trees constitute
The forest?
Do trunk tail ,legs
Eyes etc’ make an
Elephant or does the
Elephant have them?
You can understand
What my answer is
I think the same of language
Is language as mysterious as God?
