Each time we fall
skinning elbow or knee,
we feel effects
of unseen gravity.
Its force at work,
indiscriminately,
effects order
in all we do and see.

We inhale air,
with an endless supply,
unseen when clean,
if denied, we would die.

We can plant seeds
for fruits we may desire,
but only God
sprouts and grows them higher.

Who invented
gravity, air and seed?
He, who effects
each and every need.

you have done a lovely job meeting the challenge! It is so true, we could go on for years on this one...everything is His wonder.

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

Ah, I was hoping to see one of these.  God created the world, and the world exists.  There's your evidence.     I've heard this argument on several occasions.  
You poeticized it marvelously.  Well done.

Wonderful. Who could argue with your question? The answer is clear.
