You know God?
the One who made the stars
and when He was
scattering them through the universes
He put a big one next to Earth,
(which He made just by talking)
to be the sun, exactly the right distance away,
and He built a lot of stuff from
teeny, tiny, atoms and
all the smaller things making those up,
stuff like molecules
which are water
and diamond, and iron,
and lots of other things,
which connect together and make
clouds
and rocks and salt,
and that's not all
because He also took those molecules
and made life--
a miracle in itself--
creating trees and grass and flowers
and animals from the tiny amoebas
to the hugest of dinosaurs
and not just life,
because He also made us,
every single one of us
with all our hopes and dreams and the way we think
and what we look like
down to our every strand of hair
and every wrinkle in our palms,
You know, God?
Well
I just thought that it was cool
that Someone so wonderful and amazing and powerful,
not to mention awesome,
would hold my hand every day.
