It was an interesting meeting.
God woke up one morning
and just wanted to know
what his creations
were thinking
and how they were doing. That’s all.
Invited were a grasshopper,
a mountain, a desert, a lake,
a monkey, a star, a sheaf of
wheat, a grape vine, and the
Prodigal Son’s older brother.
Water from the lake spoke first, next came bread and wine - results from the fields,
the monkey was monkeying around -
and a bit later came the older brother of the Prodigal Son - now ready to talk.

All spoke up - all wanted humans
to take better care of the earth -
and God to explain climate changes
better - and the Prodigal Son's older
brother said he was just glad to be home.
