Creation

In the beginning
     God created.
Earth, Light, Form.
     A seed was planted,
     a life inspired,
     a hope was born.

The Word was spoken
     it came to be.
Sun, Sky, Sea.
     The Potter's hands,
     fashioned the clay,
     making you and me.

Spirit breathed into
     the clay.
Life, Heart, Soul.
     The garden burst,
     with new life,
     all creation whole.

In seven days
     He made it all.
Beauty, Life, Complete.
     Lord renew me,
     fill my heart,
     in this garden retreat.
