The Beginning

There existed nothing and nothingness existed
Except He who was without beginning and end
He created the heavens and the earth
And He spoke the light into existence
Once spoken there was day and night
Waters above the earth and on the earth
Receding waters leaving land showing
Spoken were the words to bring forth plants
Plants in such amazing abundance
Flying, crawling, running, swimming beasts
All were by Him spoken into being
Only left was man to create, in His image
Into a garden in Eden he was placed
Created was woman, for them to be one
All this world to us was given
Given unto us, for us to care for it

About this poem:
Just wanted to try something totally different. We are not doing a good job as caretakers.
