Spark of life

Father, I place this in your hand,
Thanks for creating many a land,
Thanks for each spark of life,
Praise a peaceful way of life,
But, we thank you God, sort of not,
For viruses and mosquito grot,
Why did you make these breeds?
Better gifts could fill our needs,
There's billions of humanity, 
Can't control our fertility,
Daylight savings must be the cause,
Unfallible men give us pause,
Thank you, God, we say any day,
No one's perfect, but thanks, okay!
