BLUE  MARBLE  EARTH

Gravity keeps us from flying off this
great big blue marble earth - so we
don't have to hang on for the ride. 
Instead we can stop to see the scenery,
the great blue waters - the plain plains -
the great grey granite mountains - and people, people everywhere. Check those noses and facial types. See those sizes - and shapes and height - and bellies and wrinkles. Notice those bugs and birds and beasts of all sizes, shapes and colors.
More: we have time to ponder and pray
and wonder about all these mysteries
around us - surrounding us - and then 
there are the questions: why God, why? Why did You make hippos and birds just sitting there on their backs - and all those different types of trees and leaves? Then there are the hundred, billion, trillion bits
of little stuff - invisible to the normal eye -
what's with taking care of all that? What
are You - some kind of super dooper engineer - or juggler extraordinaire?
