Utmost Gift

A hollow space IT was
Out of compassion HE came
Using magic surpassing ages
Spoken words the magic was
Hollow space turned to Eden
Now behold art, yet discovered

Dust and ashes it was
Out of love he made
 Using magic undiscovered
To create keepers in his image
To guide his Eden, beautiful garden
Giving them dominion over his art

For he has the magic undiscovered
Ashes made flesh he needed not
Here we are, keepers turned rogues
Even as that, he still choose us
Behold love yet to be learn
