By Not Known
The void
Formless without substance
Emptiness spilling into nothingness
No light, no life
Silence
The word
A sound
Let there be…
Light and life
Life
Bristling, bursting, bustling
Colour, shape, texture, scent, variety,
Wonder beyond imagination
Another void
Form without substance
Religion without reality
Silence
Another word
The Word became flesh
And we beheld his glory
Life
Bristling, bursting, bustling
Mercy as love conquered darkness
Wonder beyond imagination
God has spoken
This is my Son,
Listen to him.
David Burke
