The cosmos is not a
gearbox,
Turning forever with grim
precision,
Nor mere matterhood, protons
and neutrons
Cleaving and sundering as
they would.
Life is not a strand of
little letters
Arranging themselves ever
better
At the behest of hoary
Thermodynamics
Or man’s craftwiseness.
Life is a miracle!
Horses in their fields
And sun-beams falling
through tree-leaves.
Life is a miracle!
The sacrament of husband
and wife
And the Church as the Body
of Christ.
Life is a miracle!
Godhood and manhood in one
Person,
Manhood taken up into
Godhead,
Mankind and all the
creation
Flooded with the Holy
Light of Christ!
Life is a miracle!
