The Boom
(Rondeau Redouble with envoi)

Genesis 1 and 2
               “When God began creating the heavens and the earth, the earth was at first a shapeless chaotic mass, 
                 with the spirit of God brooding over the dark vapors.
                 And God said, Let there be light.”


He brooded as the vapors were compressed
while thoughts were spinning through his sacred mind.
The pull of darkness sharply coalesced
as thoughts and vapors rapidly aligned.

The particles got more and more confined.
The darkest gasses started to congest
so dense that they were strongly intertwined.
He brooded as the vapors were compressed.

Soon all the forming molecules were stressed,
and worldly notions yet to be refined,
created visions soon to be expressed
while thoughts were spinning through His sacred mind

The core of all the chaos was refined
to form a pulsing bead actions invest
with all the force a universe can bind.
The pull of darkness sharply coalesced.

The present plans can only God attest
were formed the special way that He defined.
Consolidated once at His behest
as thoughts and vapors rapidly aligned.

When pressured atom quarks became distressed,
a universe imagined as inclined
by God who has ensured that we be blessed
beyond our comprehension, things combined.
He Brooded.

He squeezed the mass with all his might
Then God said, “Let there be light.”
BOOM!!!
