The very first day I can remember, in my life, was when I was approximately two years old. Considering how many years it’s been since then, I think that’s astounding. To be clear about this…I don’t actually remember being two. But I’ve always recalled something that happened to me when I was very small, and my dad once told me he didn’t see how I could remember because I would have been only about two.
So…that’s how that goes.
Anyway…today I was thinking about the very first day in my life. I was the firstborn, so I got to be that “first experience”, in the world of procreation, to my parents. And of course, I must’ve been incredibly adorable. 🙂
Well, thinking of firsts…and thinking of the wonder of life…got me to pondering. And when I ponder, I almost always wander into rhyme time. This pondering was no different, and that’s how I came up with…
The Very First Day
Before there were created things, and darkness filled the air…
No world or human beings were existing anywhere.
Then God created earth and sea and all the heavens too.
There was no sun, no moon, no stars, and only God shone through.
He looked down at the waters and the dark face of the deep.
The earth was still and quiet just as we are when we sleep.
He said, “Let there be light” the way a perfect, true God could,
And then He saw the brand new light and knew that it was good.
Then God divided light and dark, and darkness He called Night.
The light would be called Day, and it was pleasing in His sight.
That evening and that morning wouldn’t be the total sum…
No, that was just the very first day…five were yet to come.
