Creation bloomed with the breath of God,
Appearing as He spoke the word;
Blazing in wonder and glory until
The stain of sin caused it to wilt.
Fading and withering, it will soon turn to dust;
Cut off, cast away, to soon be replaced
With something permanent, unspeakable glory…
Unimaginable, imperishable,
The end of the first to begin a new story
