Literature: Gardens of New Light

From the void came a bang and light
Dust congealed into stars and planets alike
A new earth bloomed in glorious delight
God with one bang let life take flight

Plants sprouted and grew far and wide
Animals roamed free from the ocean tide
Humans came with a divine guide

To give us love stopping any fight
To care for the Eden day and night
To continue God's work via interstellar flight
Transforming worlds once barren and dry
Into new gardens of worthy sight

Literature: Explosions in the Sky

Explosions in the sky
Bullets and rockets whiz by
Time and again I,
Shudder and sigh

Those watching us just die
On TV like we're flies
Caring not our lives
For we're bugs on a pie

I sit and pray that I can survive
Telling my kids to trust in the divine
All while hoping that it's not a lie
Hiding my every shudder and sigh
