Here at the Dispersion we mostly do blogs, but now we are going to shake it up with a blog of Haiku about creation as recorded in Genesis 1-2. Enjoy!

God said there be light

And there was, much light, bright light

Day and Night began

 

There is a domain

Which is not near to us, for sin.

God’s land is not ours

With one phrase God made

The Atlantic, Pacific,

North America

 

With a song God drew

Plants from the ground, vines from

The walls, it was good.

 

God set the moon’s clock

God set the star’s clock, God set

The time for the sun

 

Fish called to swim

Birds called to fly, God calls

To nothing: Live now

 

God over beasts, God over

Shrews, God over elephants

God over me and you.

 

God made man from dust

Woman from man, We both come

From God, to observe

 

The Lord rests in peace

Why don’t we? Are we busy?

God made the world, no?
