Long ago in an emptySpace, God arose and startedThe chase, between all of Night and all of day and Those heavenly masses that light The way, and so God started it all.Over the night sky was cast an opal,With more splendor than
Rome, or
Constantinople.Over the day was cast citrine,Under who’s rays the birds might preen.Into the sea was cast blue topaz,A stone who’s beauty recalls
Shiraz.Atop the trees were cast glistening emeralds,To catch the rays the sun unfolds.Through the night sky were cast sparkling Diamonds, not square shaped, or pair shaped,But at times like almonds. Over the years their luster Did fade, that in the light andThat in the shade, but if you lookClosely, and worthy you are, you canStill see the glistening diamond in The North Star.
