I was the youngest kid
in the Yard
They said
"Betcha can't make a Big Bang"

I did

By Golly-
Then there was Light
and all the rest of it
Galaxies, Stars
even a Black Hole
or two

Well, billions of them
but who's counting?

Then
there was all this stuff
called Evolution

Before I knew it
I had this Universe
on My hands

Thank goodness
it's vacation time

But, you know,

I wish now
I hadn't banged
that Bang
