A platypus

evolution is for

the faint of heart

those who can't

handle

the thought

of a Creator

speaking light

into existence

twelve

" wandering stars"

each one different

only one

teeming

with life

not a single cell

or bacteria

anywhere

but on earth

a bazillion stars

and each

has a name

love letters

left

for us

to find

He writes poems

in the sky

marine fossils

on mountaintops

and Books

written by

witnesses to

and of

eyewitnesses

dear Darwin

pray tell us

what the platypus

evolved from.

we'll wait.
