What a wonderful week

by Royston

On Day zero we see nought but blackness and barrenness
for there was no universe, just bottomless emptiness.

Then with darkness and light the first night and day had begun
forming the evening and morning of Day number one.

Heaven and earth divided into sea and sky so blue
This was the evening and morning of Day number two.

Ocean and land with vegetation and plants we now see
made in the evening and morning of Day number three.

The stars with their planets, the Sun and Moon and so much more
shone in the evening and morning of Day number four.

Living creatures teamed in the sea and birds in the sky
as the evening and morning of Day five passed on by.

Animals and livestock with all reptiles and humankind
in the evening and morning of Day six we now find.

All these things had been created and now God was at rest
and the evening and morning of Day seven was blest.

As the evening and morning of today is dawning
I praise God for His blessings and creative adorning.
