The Seventh Day

THE SEVENTH DAY Then God rested the seventh day, Creation was hectic, you see, The whole world He had to display, Six days He had been so busy; With hard work, everything He made, Then God rested the seventh day, The brand new earth born as He bade, Creation was not a child's play; After having a good survey Of what He had created best, Then God rested the seventh day, It was His time to take some rest; The seventh day has been hallowed, We too must rest, it's our rest day, A commandment to be followed, For God rested the seventh day. 10/30/18

I think God is taking rest till date as Universal moral values are not honored.

Very nicely done Jo. And so true, the seventh day is a day of rest and a time to reflect on all that has transpire in the prior week. Best of luck in the contest

Your poem is the first I've read so far on this topic, that offers a unique take on the theme. God rests on the seventh day--you proved it. Well done, Jo.
