The waters above and below (A Creation Song)

The waters above and below (A Creation song)

From before days were numbered,
the oceans pulsed sets of waves,
sometimes gently, caressing shore,
sometimes crashing with anxiety and anger.

From before woven fronds sheltered the weary,
rain and hail fell upon land and sea alike,
sometimes quenching and soaking the earth,
sometimes washing or beating ripples
into temporary patterns.

Over the chaos of waters, the air hovered,
thick with imagining and promise.
From the nothingness came somethingness,
sung into being by the eternal Artist.

Creation becomes God’s delight.
