Noah and the Flood

A practical man with a talent for wood viewed each morning as an omen for good He tilled the land wisely and preached the goodness of God but as each day passed there was much to portend his land had grown evil and God was displeased one day God called out to him and said I will destroy this earth of animal and humankind and you will be cited with your family united to construct a craft that I see fit space for two species of each to share your ark and hark there will be a flood of great dimension and it will not cease until all life is gone As time passed on it began to rain uncessantly with tremendous waves overlaying the mounts extinguishing life as the ark floated on a raven sent out but never alit and soon it was gone then a dove returned with a leaf in its beak and left again but never returned Noah then knew there was land yet to seek months had passed and the earth became dry he directed his family out from the ark and the animals came also two by two with Noah, God had made a pact never to destroy but just to endure for the manner of men needed much to explore day and night will never cease let us prepare a fabulous feast to rejoice in new life riddance to the old and embrace in its warmth and force out the cold Contest
