MAGNIFICENT WORLD
by Bill Kochman

Just imagine the magnificent beauty,
When the Lord first created the Earth,
It was indeed such a wonderful sight,
All of God’s sons were filled with mirth.
Yes, it was so virgin, pure and verdant,
No, never touched by any human hand,
How I would have surely and truly loved,
To have lived in that very pleasant land.
Now of course in our own present time,
Some places still take our breath away,
Yet I must wonder if it can ever compare,
To the world born on that very first day.
No doubt Adam and Eve had to marvel,
As they took in such an awesome view,
Honestly, if you had been in their place,
Wouldn’t you have likewise done it too?
Yet today just look at what we are doing,
To this precious gift given from above,
We strip & pollute it with so many things,
And don’t treat it with kindness and love.
Poor stewards we have all certainly been,
We do not respect what our Father gave,
So there needs to be a great awakening,
For it’s past time that we begin to behave.
