Very First Time

Oh happy,

Perfect day

When

Earth worlds and stars

Spun in majestic light

And glory

When

A perfect universe

Swirled and burst

Away from the infinitesimally

Tiny point of

Matter

And

Words

Spoken

Eons ago

Were

Squeaky clean

When

The first man

Walked

And believed.

Faith

Substance of things unseen,

And woman joined him

And water lapped on

The edges of lands

When

The first bird sang.

The first flower grew.

The first ear heard.

The first eye saw.

Oh happy,

Perfect day!
