"  God sat down for a moment when the dog was finished in order to watch it... and to know that it was good, that nothing was lacking, that it could not have been made better. "
Rainer Marie Rilke

Creations.

When God had made the earth and sky
the flowers and the trees.
He then made all the animals
and all the birds and bees.

And when his work was finished
not one was quite the same.
He said: “I’ll walk this earth of mine
and give each one a name.”

And so He travelled land and sea
and everywhere he went.
a little creature followed him
until his strength was spend.

When all were named upon the earth
and in the sky and sea.
The little creature said: “Dear Lord,
there’s not one left for me.”

The Father smiled and softly said:
“I’ve left you till the end.
I’ve turned my own name back to front
and called you ‘DOG’ my friend.”
