The Gods of Here or There
fracturedrepublic.com ^ | July 18, 2008 | Gordon Greene

Stumbling to my feet amidst this show of inspiration,

Crumbling to the earth in chunks of ebony; sublime!

Wonder fills my senses with divine anticipation…

Peeking through the twilight; blankets laced with starry night,

______________________________________________________

Like an orange flower blooming out of just a notion,

Gentle beams of sunlight soon initiate the stream,

Before you know it, floods of light come streaming like an ocean

The sea lay there before me basking in its radiant beam

______________________________________________________

What do I owe this pleasure? To the gods of here or there?

Or to a Heavenly Father who created all we see,

So beautiful the vision that surrounds us everywhere,

I just cannot believe that all by chance it came to be

______________________________________________________

And when you look upon this vast creation, tell me how,

Design without Designer? “Chance” is infinitely small,

One day before Creator every knee will humbly bow,

And every tongue confess, “He is Creator of it all”.

Hilarious. I love Hitchiker’s references. I’ve been trying to work in “by throwing oneself at the ground and missing.” The opportunity just hasn’t presented itself.*sigh*
