Perception Deceived
Things Aren’t Always As It Seems

Though “something from nothing” is perfectly flawed
Still, people insist that there isn’t a God
We see what we want and we trust in perception
Hold fast to rebellion, ignoring deception
Accepting assumptions because we’ve been told
“If layered in rock, it’s a billion years old”
Since God’s not constrained by the passage of time
Then God can make something “appear” in its prime
He answers to no one, He does as He wills
He made the first mountains that never were hills
Those early stars made weren’t from nebula first
Grown creatures He made didn’t need to be nursed
Like when He created both Adam and Eve
Both were mature, although babes, I believe
Before disobedience ushered in pain
The very first oceans had never seen rain
So come with the mocking, rebel with the taunts
The Lord’s still Almighty and does what He wants
What God first intended will soon be restored
When mysteries are answered, the “Day of the Lord”

I’ve been writing poetry (rhyming mostly) since about 2014 and have recently transitioned to writing novels and short stories. My poetry genres are faith, humor, social issues, politics, pretty much any subject matter.
