Blessed Humanity

In praise of mankind the beautiful,
the flesh and bones and wit,
the development of all the parts,
the creation from the high superior,
the plan drawn up
and followed through,
the blessed being blessed
by the highest authority,
the praise acknowledged,
taken to heart,
and given back in reverence,
each part responsible
for the other’s execution,
dependence living out its obligations
with a mind to rise above it,
but an urge to stay within its laws,
that natural law of procreation,
of life longing for life,
a fulfillment of life’s furthest dream,
an assignment granted
when that dream was born
and the love of that duty,
the joy of life and the living of it
and the constant moving
toward the mind and love
of the creator who
made it all possible.
