What Did God Do On the Seventh Day

On the seventh day God leaned back and rested. He gazed at the heavens, all of its planets, stars, and the pleasing cerulean sky and its drifting clouds as the earth turned as did the changing seasons; the snow-capped mountains, lush forest and seeds taking root, stupendous waterfalls cascading down into the depths of streams and rivers towards the ocean. He marveled at the sand dunes move across the ground in wind, the blazing hot sun painting the skies tangerine-lavender while melting over the corners of the horizon. He smiled at the calm turquoise ocean's life swim in its briny water as the waves walked up to the shores; birds spread their wings and flew across the sky while small birds near ground and around their nest. God watched his children on land having dominion over all the creatures on earth. 10/18/2018 Poetry Contest: What Did God Do On The Seventh Day?
