Creation's Hard Questions
by
Josprel
(Genesis 1:3-5)
Hey, there, you Bible dogmatists,
Attention, if you will,
I have some questions I would pose to you,
On earth's first day, where came the light,
That God called Day and darkness night,
Though He created sun and moon day four?
(Genesis 1:7)
So, as you think of answers, now,
Respond to this one too,
Are seas up in the sky? Please tell me true,
If literally this verse we read,
To this conclusion it does lead,
Does one get soaked enroute to heaven's home?
(Genesis 2:20)
Just one more thing I ask of you,
Indulge me, if you please,
The mate that God gave Adam was named Eve,
I ask you why before she came,
A mate was sought in beasts' domain,
Though none was found for man, the fact is true.
(Romans 1:20
Now, though God chose to tell us not,
How worlds He did create,
Our faith based, on His Word, declare His deeds,
I do have questions, I confess,
But literalists cause me distress,
God's evidence is there, but not one heeds.
