The Universe for Me

God made the universe for me,
and, oh, behold for you,
He blinked in His eternity,
and all our dreams came true.

He tossed like marbles one by one
the planets in the sky,
and bade them circle round the sun,
like cherries in a pie.

He hid Himself in little hints
from fish to birds and bees,
just like He left His fingerprints
across the galaxies.

He spiced each piece most tastefully,
and then He took the whole
and baked a special recipe
to feed my hungry soul.
