last year for my brother’s birthday, i was at work or something and wrote this on-the-moment for a comment on his profile. it’s supposed to be humourous. :)
******************************************
this is the story and account of the beginnings of the Michael:
in the year of our Lord,
nineteen hundred, eighty and three,
on the thirteenth day of the month of September,
the Lord God did stretch forth his hand,
and whilst creating a fresh batch of human,
dropped a bit of the batter upon the earth.
and thus saith the Lord: oops.
and the Lord God, he did then pick up the bit
of batter and whilst no one was looking
did quickly form the batter into a
funny morsel of a man-child; the Lord
God did this with haste for the archangel
Michael and Gabriel the messenger had
returned from a game of tennis with
Ray-Charles the psalmist.
and the Lord God did spake unto his angels:
behold, a new man-child!
and Gabriel and Michael did look and saw
the man-child; they did give each other a
strange look betwixt themselves.
for they knew that the man-child was a
funny thing to behold. a strange boy
this creation was indeed.
and the Lord God saith:
After you, my angel and servant, Michael,
shall I name this man-child.
and unto my angel and servant, Gabriel,
do I the Lord dedicate him,
for he shall be a messenger unto his people.
now Michael the archangel and captain of the hosts
of the army of the Lord, and Gabriel the messenger angel of God,
not wanting to be unruly in the presence of the Almighty,
did say say among their own thoughts:
why doth my lord give unto this strange creature my namesake?
but aloud, Michael the archangel and Gabriel the messenger did say:
great is the Lord and worthy to be praised!
for he has created a great thing! the Michael!
and the Lord smiled. and he did give unto the
man-child a name, and called He him Michael.
and the Lord saw His creation and saw that it was good.
HAPPY BURFDAY Michael!!!
