creation

i wonder if it was like that for them
before time
if They were so overwhelmed
by Their own goodness and glory and unity
that the only thing They...He could do
was create
speak out
and the word brought physical into being
commanded light, revealing form and tone
breathed out sound, filling sky and earth and sea
with an orchestra of birds and beasts
singing praise
the most beautiful poetry of colour and movement and aroma
rhythms of rest and work
flowing sea swaying tree
line upon line of intricate detail
depths unknown
miniscule complexity in every curve and twist
of abundant life.
