Before there was anything including space 
God was wondering what to place 
Into the air and what to share 
And after all, who would be there. 

Plants and animals return to dust. 
To keep Him company He made us, 
With looks, a soul, a memory and such, 
Free will, imagination, and sex, 
(Thank you very much.)

On the prettiest item in the sky, 
On this blue marble go you and I 
To live and grow in relative bliss 
In a quest for happiness. 

Before us Adam and Eve were sent 
Who shortly met with a serpent 
And with their ego He did fool 
So they broke the only rule.  

To fix the damage they had done 
God later sent His only Son. 
He changed the rules for all the rest 
From now on, we must invest. 

A test, a quest, a grade to make 
Will be needed to partake. 
With Him first they’re only plusses. 
Living simple cuts the fusses. 

On our plate are things to do 
And have and eat and show up to 
And God is there as one who’s struggling 
Will you help or stay home snuggling? 

We’re all running out of dating 
To enjoy the encore waiting, 
Live His way and let it show 
So your life is His Standing “O”
