On creation

[missmaryr]

We gaze at the sky
Clouds and air that flow and twist
In patterns that we strive to understand

We watch the sea
Water and currents that flow and roil
In patterns that we try to understand

We look at the ground
    Earth and rock that shift and grind
In patterns that we wish to understand

We study our bodies
Bits and pieces that dance and join
In patterns that we need to understand

One gathered the atoms
Created the patterns
Choreographed the dance

And for that we say
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
