The World Without Us
Maybe the world exists perfectly on its own
Without the burden of man to claim it as his throne
For who created the sky or the mountains on the Earth?
Who has sculpted the stars or gave sunlight its very birth?
How did the world prevail before our humble subsistence?
Could the rivers and oceans flow without our assistance?
Was there a noble artist who painted the night sky?
Or a brilliant choreographer who taught the birds to fly?
Perhaps the world without us was consummately splendid
And there’s more that meets the eye than can ever be comprehended
Perchance the world without us is an impeccable creation
Overflowing in harmony and poetic articulation!
