"CREATION"
The eternal mystery of creation,
astounds us..........................
The heavenly bodies - the sun, moon,
stars the earth...................,
moving, in perfect harmony,
incomparable beauty, beyond imagination.
Exquisite configurations...,
photochemical like glimpses of our
beginnings........................,
millions of light years ago........
Their magnitude overwhelms us...,
while creative nature gives fascinating,
glimpses of rocky formations...,
leaving craggy, statuesque, symbolic..,
figures, forever set in stone.
Seeds -- the source akin to life...,
with chromosomes that behave in sequence,
responding to light--temperature changes,
shaping their destiny..............
Snowflakes with limitless exquisite,
designs.......................,
millions of patterns, none the same,
fall by the wayside to form drifts
of snow...................
The seasons arrive in perfect unison,
Spring--Summer--fall--winter.....,
never changing--natures clock..,
never failing-symbolic of a devine,
plan for eternity...........
"AH," sweet mystery of life ..........,
will we ever find it.......ever understand it?
Till God touched man -- woman...,
with his mighty hand. . .......,
We, were only dust........,
"BLOWING IN THE WIND" !!!
