The Poetry of Beginning

Words—

strong words

calling worlds

out of nothing.

Words—

hopeful words—

breathing light

into darkness.

Words—

skillful words—

carving skies

out of the water.

Words—

artistic words—

sketching land

and all her foliage.

Words—

adorning words—

racing space-ward,

hanging lanterns.

Words—

accomplished words—

birds in flight,

and fish that swim.

Words—

imaginative words—

animals of all kinds,

grazing on land.

Words—

sacred words

“Let us make man in our image,”

male and female.

Words—

divine words—

satisfied with His art:

Very good.”
