Head hang down in shame
Before the Almighty God who created
Sun
Stars
Moon
Earth
Man
And from the man, Woman
Both in his image
And with his spirit
Made them breathe
Granted them life
In paradise
The Garden of Eden
His only two instructions to them
“Be fruitful and become many”
“Cultivate and take care of the earth”
We have failed our Creator
Head hang down in shame
Hands, too, fall limp in despair
For in all its officialdom
Earth’s body of nations has spoken
And all their scientists are in accord
Life created here by God
Is in the midst of its sixth
And possibly last
Extinction event
The United Nations today released its
Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform
On Biodiversity and Ecosystem Service’s
Exhaustive three year 1,500 page report
In short
Millions of life species
Will disappear in a century or two
Without them
So will man
After thousands of years
Two hundred left
Well, at least we think
Be ashamed, mankind!
It was a simple thing God asked
The first, ‘be fruitful’
Accomplished
The second simple thing
‘Cultivate and take care of the earth’
We did NOT take care
Nor did we love and cultivate the earth
Instead we adulterated our love
And plundered
Now let our heads hang down
And our hands fall limp
In abject shame
As we await God’s righteous
So righteous judgement
