Psalm II

I sing to
creator
of all things elemental

mountains jagged rising from
highway to heaven
seas immense immutable
prairie grasses stretching to
straight line horizon
great green forests
and the lives lived there
rivers which begin and arrive
criss-crossing lands
bringing life

I sing to
creators
who came after

attempting beauty
with astounding gifts
of word
sight
sound
shaping the elemental
into beauteous complexity
always pointing back
to original
creative
love
