The World Was Made Round

(about 1992)

Why did God
make the world round?
Because
He wanted His children
to prove
that it is round.;
He wanted them
to know faith.

Why did  God
make the world round?
Because He didn't want
His children hiding
in deep, dark corners;
He wanted each child's face
to feel the warmth of light.

Why did God
make the world round?
Because round things
don't have a top, or a bottom.
They don't have a head,
only a heart.
Of one heart.
