God's perfect portrait

It is a perfect portrait you drew
Every line is a secret whisper of your name
On this tall tree the colors are perfectly made
And the flowers at the roots make the picture great

The sun, the moon and the stars
And every little part
I’m so amazed by your heart
That drew such beauty in six (seven) days

The stony nature-made steps on this mountain
And the small drops the sky cries
Are all so perfect for human eyes to see
And yet, here we are messing the perfect picture up

A frameless picture you drew
But as a God you never needed to
Put a frame for your colors will never mix up
They’ll stay apart, yet together
Until you decide the end of forever
And all join you there above

Author notes

Contest prompt:

Oh God ! the beauty of your art makes me speechless...Unknown.

In this line "That drew such beauty is six (seven) days" I put 'seven' in the brackets because the time God took to create earth varies from religion to another (as I heard) so I didn't want anyone to get mixed thoughts and added both 'six' and 'seven'.

Thanks for reading!

    You have really painted such a lovely picture with your words. I guess I have never looked at it in terms of a beautiful picture but what you write is very true. I honestly think that this poem calls for very little revision. I love the last few lines. You always seem able to end your poems well.

    very interesting write. I definitely see religious aspects in this. You use imagery well here.
