Story of Time

It is land of seas but was born in fire The fire Is what creation of our planet would inspire Only when it cooled it put on more familiar attire Than it was world of sea With strange creatures in that sea For next one hundred and forty million years only sea Would control Earth’s destiny Than creatures began to come onto land Some adapted to live in trees others sand Many different creatures would be found In this strange but fertile land Amphibians then reptiles in blink of evolutionary eye And reptiles dominated earth, sea and sky Pterodactyls would learn how to fly But at the end of Mesozoic they and dinosaurs would die New life would form Mammals would evolve like a storm New plants would take form And seeing birds would now be norm Then finally man appeared And from certain point of view he is also weird Through his time man both cried and cheered And so far has not disappeared He has mastered many things in his time But what would be sublime Is if he mastered the very time And more importantly every line of time When we see sea or huge field of grass we know it’s vast When I look at the sun as it shadow down on the sea of grass it will cast I realize time is vast But divine must be face behind sun and time that forever will last

Thanks for sharing Patrycjusz. Reminds me of a book, confirming a 25,000 year cycle influencing societies? Yea but theology says most emphatically were not into 10,000. What Gives?

Thank you very much for your comment. 25000 years do you mean the period of time it takes all equinoxes to turn around the elliptic? I don't know where you get the 10000 though. My story starts millions or even billions years ago. That is how I was thought. The divine may exist despite of evolution if you ask me. 10000 years is close to time civilization arrived. That is why biblical time starts at about that time at least that is what I think. I don't mean to support nor deny anything but I can see your point two don't coincide however there is always option C and truth might be more interesting than anyone expects.
