cadence for all time.

      And God Choreographed life on Earth

      With crawling animals and walking animals;

      There were fruit trees for fruit eaters;

      There were nut trees for nut eaters;

      Herbivores and carnivores; procreators and scavengers.

      Parasites, epiphytes and symbionts.

      Each absorbed God; each extended the Divine Genius of Creation.

      Then there appeared all manner of flora:

      Those to grow in the sea, those to grow in the air, those to grow on the land.

      Those that flower, those that bring forth fruit; those that bear nuts.

      Those that are eaten; those that are merely admired.

      Those that complete their cycle in one season;

      Those that survive for centuries.

      Firs with needles; cacti with thorns; trees with leaves;

      Each plant producing its own kind for all generations;

      Each plant transmitting its seeds to carry on its species;

      Each seed unfolding new and unique qualities;

      Each seed mixing with others of the same species to build a new family.

      New combinations of proteins brought forth all manner of fauna.

      Insects that crawl and those that fly.

      All manner of birds were brought forth.

      Those that float; those that fly; and those that walk on land.

      All manner fish were brought forth:

      Those that swim and those that crawl on the sea bottom.

      All manner of animals were brought forth:

      Those living in caves; those living in trees; and those living in the wild.

      Those that are fleet; those that are slow-footed.

      Then did God Bless the plants and the animals

      And all life bearing chromosomes for the next generation.

      God’s Genius Exists in flora and fauna and they reflect God’s Living Infinite Presence.

      Day 6. After Careful Meditation

      God’s Genius Rearranged spiraling amino acids, phosphates and sugars.

      Each new helical twist brought forth a different human family:

      The tall, the short; the dark, the light; the narrow, the stout.

      Each was Endowed with The Holy Spirit; each was Selected to protect Nature.

      Each was Selected to discover order in and extend the unfolding worlds of Nature.

      Each was Selected to bring order to the worlds of Nature.

      Each was Selected with the intelligence to study Nature’s secrets.

      Each was Fitted with the power to preserve and extend Creation.

      Each was Fitted with the choice of conserving Nature or destroying it.

      Within each human God Inscribed the Sacred Knowledge of Right and Wrong

      To balance destructive, generative, and protective impulses.

      To each new generation Was Revealed Nature known since antiquity;

      To each new generation Was Revealed Nature unknown to its forbears.

      Each human Was Given the power to reason, enhance, and intensify thought.

      Each human Was Given power to construct and reflect.

      Each human Was Given the sparks of Mercy and Forgiveness;

      Each human Was Given the resolve to serve others through Sacred

      Inspirations.

      To God each human is holy; no one is more treasured than another.

      Each is a scion of the Sacred Source.

      When the systems were in place for all Creation to be good for all Time,

      God Blessed the human families and Assigned them the duty to protect Creation.

      God’s Grace Exists in human families and human families reflect God’s Greatness and Infinity.

      Day 7. When the patterns of Nature were completed, God Rested and Found Peace.

      So it was with heavenly hosts circling for eternity: a time to give light, a time to renew.

      So it is with the seas which rage today and whisper in the morrow.

      So it is with the trees which awake in Summer and sleep in Winter.

      So it is with all manner of life, seeking food and shelter for days

      Then resting to prepare for the next quest.

      So it is with God in glittering glory and with Ardor Created the cosmos in six days

      And Rested on the seventh to Contemplate on its wonders and Remember them.

      God Ordained that humans work six days and restore themselves on the seventh, the Sabbath.

      Since that First Day of Rest has God Blessed each Sabbath day and Made it Sacred.

      God’s Glory Glitters in cycles of Creation and Rest and Exists in all of Nature.

      And all of Nature Reflects Harmoniously Rhythmic Continuity.

      The First Seven Days: Version Two1

      Within each particle throughout the Vast

      That had no present and had no past

      Dwelled God, Enshrined in endless Time,

      Circled by depths and heights sublime.

      All was hot and dark and still,

      When swiftly dawned The Creator’s Will,

      Launching lightning in all directions,

      Pursued by thunder’s ricocheting reflections.

      It was then that Time began

      And when Space, as well, spread its span.

      Light eddied from a fiery sun

      And rings of planets in the cosmos spun.

      Distant stars, jewels of the night,

      Watched Earth born ‘midst showers of Light.

      Gasses mixed and moisture spread

      And living matter then was bred.

      From the waters seas had formed,

      Washed the world and brewed the storm.

      Then Baptized cells as they arrived,

      Nourished them, too, and they survived.

      Plants grew up, both short and tall,

      With flowers and fruits that ever enthrall.

      Mountains rose to majestic size

      Reaching high to the swelling skies.

      Families of fish swarmed the seas

      Spreading rainbow fantasies.

      Animals roved the land to find

      The havens which God to them Assigned.

      Birds in the sky would daily scout

      Nesting places all about.

      Each bird chirped its very own song,

      And animals and trees sang along.
