This Day

Science and faith and you

Note: Below the poem is an audio clip of the author reading the poem.

Five trillion days ago,
when there was no when,
where there was no where,
an infinitesimal quantum hiccup
belched forth all
time, space, energy, laughter;
started making days.

This day
was the intended effect.
This day.

The Word spoke, created, that this very day be.
Into this day, He placed you; He placed me.

And I like the idea
of spending this day
with you
and with Him,
laughing,
in the space and with the energy
that He gave us,
five trillion days ago.
