Description
Apophysis, PSP
Then the green grass sprouted,
And the little red flowers blossomed,
The pine-tree pointed his finger to the sky,
And the oak spread out his arms;
The lakes cuddled down in the hollows of the ground,
And the rivers ran down to the sea;
And God smiled again,
And the rainbow appeared,
And curled itself around His shoulder.
The God raised His arm and He waved His hand
Over the sea and over the land,
And He said, "Bring forth! Bring forth!"
And quicker than God could drop His hand,
Fishes and fowls
And beast and bird
Swam the rivers and the seas,
Roamed the forest and the woods,
And split the air with their wings,
And God said, "That's good!"
-James Weldon Johnson, "The Creation (A Negro Sermon)", 1927
