Boss Almighty

‘There shall be light…’

‘Sorry Boss, it’s too dark, no light switch in sight’

‘Then switch on the torch and let us see what I have created..

…I’m sure what I did will be debated’

‘Yes Boss, to see whatever your creation is

….I just have to put some new batteries’

‘Why is your torchlight so lame instead of bright?’

‘Boss, I use an energy-saving bulb torchlight’

In the dim light a dull sphere in the middle of nowhere came into view

‘I think a sky is missing, that is first thing tomorrow I will do’

Hovering over the endless waters the Boss mused: ‘I would like to walk on sand…

…tomorrow I think I create some dry land….

…it shall be covered with plants and flowers and trees’

‘If you wish so Boss, then it shall be’

And so, the Boss did plant bushes and trees and covered with grass the rest

In Ireland this grass became the greenest, but the Caribbean grass tasted best

Still today it’s cultivated seed by seed

And became commonly known as ‘weed’

Slowly the batteries of the energy-saving bulb torchlight exhausted

And a new, environmentally friendly, light source had to be promoted

The Boss then decided renewable energy shall apply

On day four he created the sun, moon and the stars in the sky

‘It is early morning, why is it still dim although my new sun does shine’?

‘Boss, we are on Daylight Savings Time……

…your sun will grow to full power….

…with a delay of one hour’

‘It’s so silent here, we need something that chirps and twitters’

‘Yes Boss, maybe you create some bugs and critters’?

‘Your idea is so good that I will ask Moses to note it as mine…

… I create some simple life on this place and everything will be fine, …

.. what do you do when life gives you lemons and the sun for you does not shine’?

‘My advice Boss: Add some salt, tequila and lime….’

Watching his creation with a glass of Tequila in his hand

Musing that he must be the greatest ever one-man band

‘Somehow, I feel that I miss the pinnacle, I mean creational…

…imagine I would create people; wouldn’t that be sensational?…

…I do it following my mirror image. It’s as simple as that’

‘Boss, you mean short, bald and fat’?

This remark did not go down too well

After the Heavens and the Earth, he created hell

All alone now the Boss was at odds with himself whether to stay or to leave

Out of boredom he created Adam and Eve

He teaches the two about life, snakes and nutrition

And remarks some apples would not be included in the provision

On day seven then the Boss decided he did his best

And left it to us to do the rest
