Theology of the Garden Bench
God’s
good, green earth is holy, and must be reverenced
As
an act of His Creation, a work of His hands
And
of His breath, His singing into being
This
glorious epiphany in which we live
Our
little children live close upon the earth
Laughing
and tumbling through the summer grass
With
kittens and puppies as their happy playmates
Sweet
Eden’s innocence echoed in them all
And
we with our weary, creaky old bones
Repose
like royalty on an old wooden bench
And
give thanks
