Peace to this household

God's peace be on all those who live within
this household (which is much more than 'this house' -
A household might've chosen tent-livin',
and they can make some orn'ry things look grouse!

B'coz they are creative sparks from him,
who thought up good, then  talkin' to 'imself,
an' talkin' to the thing he was makin',
created this whole world, from 'off the shelf',

- that's as a way of speaking, in 'iz mind,
and then used 'this', to make some more of 'that',
then put them both together, and we find
that we have been made up, with a 'split splat'.

And yet we aren't just sparks, or his robots,
(unless we're bound within that world-view which
we always must interpret what we've got
so that we are machines, though in 'high viz').

He also told our story to us so
we'd know that we are no less than "his kids",
and told us to remember, so we'd grow
up more to be like him until our lids

can open up, and then when we come out
the screaming, and the crying, and the smiles,
the celebrating (with all of God's shouts)
his children have been born after 'a while'

so when a household's made of baby gods,
and 'shalom' means to thrive, as gardens grow,
if they're connected to The God, what odds
'dyou bet against, in saying "that will show"?
