When the Earth was New
when the earth was new
was the sky bluer
the grass greener
the air sweeter
when the earth was new
did the brown soil thirst for the first rains
to quench it’s crumbling depths
did the flower have to be told how to unfold her petals at
first dawn
when the earth was new
did the dew fall purer on every leaf
did the tree know where to push its roots
did the fern unfurl it's fronds in praise of creation’s
beauty
when the earth was new
