Seven Days

Seven days of light on Earth.

The first day light struck Earth,
         it embodied life.
The second day light struck Earth,
         it created strife.

         The third day,
a footprint was shone.
         The fourth day,
a man sat upon a throne.

The fifth created a global philosophy -
Life must be mastered by dichotomy.

The Yin and the Yang developed a Xiang;

A middle ground between opposites.

The sixth day brought a scientific revolution,
Of knowledge and finding, and wonder and idea,
Challenging the belief of Christs crucifixion.

The middle ground now though was a belief;

Evolution created man and God evolution,
But scientists can draw no conclusions.

The seventh brought unification,
Where a single flag unites all nations.
