One reasonable way
to weigh God’s Creation
is to stand at night
in open space
and look upwards.
Infinite dark
vastness beyond measure
made
effectively
of nothing.
Scattered like dust
through this archway of nothing
you see pin-points of light
called stars.
But these, you learn,
although substantive,
are also dead,
truly of dust,
just nothing
made differently.
Keep looking.
It is a study in motion
of nothing to infinity
interspersed
by dots of nothing.
Keep looking.
When in the beginning
God made the Word
he made it momentary. The silence He made
is infinite
and lasts for all time.
