Noah's Arc
Noah’s Arc Part I Mankind was filled With lies and corruption No one was listening To gods’ instructions Crime and murder Climbed impossibly high Society was horrific People spilled with lies Murder Adultery, rape Gods people were vexed In a dystopian state ‘The devil is the reason For the injustice we see!’ God thought to himself ‘How can they blame me?’ What became of stipulation Through his solemnness God bequeath his view To make once again blessed 'I will cleanse the earth' he said With a torrential flood And remove all from the earth Saving Noah, who is good It was also his family That God luminously chose For they obeyed his order And swore by the same foes 'Noah my son, I call unto thee!' I have come to a decision I hope you can agree' God explained his plan To the last good man And Noah reaffirmed That mankind was damned ---part 2--- Noah began construction Of the ship of his dreams It was bigger than any other That had existed or ever been It was his dreams that helped him Envision the plot Ideas would appear, He'd scribble down and jot It was gods’ plan, Specific instruction That Noah board animals To sustain reproduction God needed two of each animal For the sake of procreating Though while onboard God forbid them from mating So, Noah built 3 decks, For birds, cattle, and game. He made storage for the food And vowed to treat all the animals the same. He warned the people Of the times to come But none took Noah seriously, They all believed he was dumb They made much laughter As time counted down Noah built his ship, Knowing they'd all soon drown Part III The sky relentlessly poured Flooding the valleys and plains God thought this was deserving To the murderers, cheats, and gays All the divine plans enacted God never flinched at all Noah was particularly ready Minding the minor stall The last of the animals were boarding, The lions, hippos and gazelle The Angels stood so vigilant Asserting humanity to hell The storm provoked a disaster And the people begged for mercy Some tried boarding In a desolate frantic hurry But there was no salvation With the angels on guard When the arc had closed Humanity demised and fell hard Wind and Lightning! Ravaged the earth Material possessions No longer held any worth The light protected The last good man As mankind panicked Amidst gods’ dismal plans The waters rose high And the ship held form The lepers and sick Died first in this storm Then it was the weak The elderly and children They had watched Noah for weeks While mocking his vision Some people swam But they didn't last long The hurricanes and oceans Swept them along The only survivors Of this cataclysmic storm Were the boats passengers Certainly now, they would mourn Part 4 For many weeks The ocean had woe As pain and beauty Would ebb and flow The earth was now purged And all that lived Understood one irony, Life is gods gift The animals aboard Were safe and sound They had earned their sea legs And missed stable ground And luckily for Noah, He planned just enough food He started to become fearful That the lions would brood He was fortunate enough To receive gods word That the earth would rise From the waters that stir It was some days later, After the storm stopped The waters began receding, They could only dream of crops As the boat stifled To no direction and route It suddenly collided And Noahs vision came true Land! Home! A place to belong Were the animals might graze And a man can write song The animals scuttled out of the ship After this long unnecessary trip They wear ordered to abstain from the food chain Due to a severe population dip God sent rations, Food from above He feared carnivores might perish For them he had love Awkwardly and unclear God let them rest here He made the survivors feel fortunate After instilling insurmountable fear
