God said it was good



God said it was good.

He did not say:
…it was unimportant
…it was meaningless
…it was irrelevant.
He said it was good.

God did not say:
It will be good
…once it has been modified, processed, developed
…once it has been exploited, consumed, destroyed
…once it has been value-added, sold and made profitable.
He said it was good.

God did not say:
It is good
…only for the rich
…only for the powerful
…only for those living in the 21st century.
He said it was good.

God did not say:
It is all there is
And humans can discover
Everything there is to know
Just by studying it.
He said it was good.

God did not say:
It is divine,
It is to be worshipped,
It replaces religion,
It replaces Church,
It is God.

But He did say it was good.

  2. Thanks Raven,

    I thought for a while before deciding to post this. Because it's not very good poetry and I didn't even set out to write a poem.

    But in the end, I decided it was what I wanted to say in the way I wanted to say it. And that's a good enough reason for me to put it out there.
