In the Beginning

At the start, the first
there was nothing
(a concept difficult to comprehend)

Creation in an instance
order found out of chaos
coming together, coalescing
waters, compartmentalizing
the dome, the seas, the firm land

Life sprang forth
living things, of the land,
the sea, the air

Dominion over all
given to us, day by day
in the garden, the cradle
the glorious creation
out of the void
