Lord, I know I’ve
never prayed
And I really don’t
know how
But I feel there is a
question
That I have to ask
you now
The bible says you
made this earth
From the void in just
six days
Then displayed your
love of beauty
In a myriad different
ways
You started off
creating time
By dividing day from
night
And set the eternal
cycles
With the darkness and
the light
On the next day of
creation
Your great wisdom you
did show
Dividing vapours up
above
From the waters down
below
On the third day you
continued
Separating land and
sea
And set the plants to
grow there-in
In a vast abundancy
On the fourth day you
decided
On a focus for the
light
You made the sun to
watch the day
And the moon to rule
the night
On the fifth day you
created
Fish to swim the
lakes and seas
And birds to fly upon
the wind
And nest within the
trees
On the last day you
excelled yourself
Making beasts to roam
the land
Be they crawling on
their bellies
Or upon their legs to
stand
Now, I know you will
not like this
But there’s something
I must say
I think you made a
big mistake
On that sixth and
final day
It’s a shame you were
not happy
With the beauty of
this land
For you blew it all
completely
When you formed from
clay a man
On that day you made
a monster
Filled with anger,
greed and hate
And he set about
destroying
All the work you’d
done to date
He is killing off
your creatures
At a truly
frightening speed
And the only reason
for it
Is his never ending
greed
He pollutes your seas
and rivers
And he doesn’t seem
to care
That the life-style
he is living
Is now poisoning the
air
In his task he is
relentless
Destroying all things
in his way
He can now reverse your
process
Of creation in a day
If things carry on
much longer
It won’t matter
anymore
That the world is
slowly dying
He’ll destroy it in a
war
So Lord, I now
beseech you
Will you listen to my
cry?
I only have one
question
And that question
Lord is...
...Why?
