A Gift Called Life
In order to augment the glory of the crystalline sky; God inundated it with a festoon of enchantingly misty clouds,
In order to augment the glory of the lanky tree; God flooded its barren surface with a blanket of fresh green leaves,
In order to augment the glory of the fleshy palm; God embellished its surface with a myriad of fascinating lines bifurcated into islands and forks,
In order to augment the glory of the plain atmosphere; God deluged its gloomy ambience with sizzling rays of brilliant Sunlight,
In order to augment the glory of the colossal ocean; God imparted its boundless surface with a cavalcade of ravishingly frosty waves,
In order to augment the glory of fecund territories of brown soil; God embodied its surface with a wide fraternity of salubrious crop,
In order to augment the glory of the voluptuously fathomless jungles; God placed a battalion of majestic lions on its rustled paths,
In order to augment the glory of the towering mountains; God embedded their treacherous slopes with compassionate balls of white snow,
In order to augment the glory of the redolently scarlet rose; God granted its demeanor with a seductively exotic scent,
In order to augment the glory of the delectably hidden nest; God filled its empty persona with a cluster of stupendously charming and innocuous eggs,
In order to augment the glory of the placid night; God blessed its shivering persona with amicably twinkling stars,
In order to augment the glory of the gorgeously unsurpassable valley; God lit up its dolorous space with a boisterously pepped up and a stringent echo,
In order to augment the glory of the innocuously wandering cow; God imparted it with the prowess of oozing life yielding and sacrosanct milk,
In order to augment the glory of cascading rain; God impregnated the cosmos with a spell binding and vivacious rainbow,
In order to augment the glory of mammoth stacks of diamonds and gold; God triggered their periphery with a mesmerizing and perennial shine,
In order to augment the glory of the blind bat; God granted it with the astounding ability to stick wherever it wanted; to sleep upside down,
In order to augment the glory of the blossoming shoots of bountiful grass; God overwhelmed its tips with tantalizingly alluring dewdrops,
In order to augment the glory of true love; God gave it the highest priority on his agendas of this unfathomable Universe; granted it the virtue of being supremely immortal,
And in order to augment the glory of every human; God swamped his dead body with an armory of passionate heart beats; flooded his dormant lungs with gargantuan
bellows of fresh breath; bestowed upon him the most wonderful gift existing on this planet; a gift that we all know today as life.
