In Creation Visions Always Come First Poem by Erhard Hans Josef Lang

In creation visions always come first·

First you picture a thing,
Scheme it out in your mind,
Fancy a novelty that could be fun and feasible,

Then only, after the envisioning is done,
The world one day might get the chance
To marvel and enjoy
A new Variegation that will have made a difference
And mattered in creativity's due time, for

In creation visions always come first·

Except for that Primal one, as modern science contends,
If those dwarf nest thinkers had been right with
That theory of blind chance evolutions of theirs —
But, of course, they are not! , since

In creation visions ALWAYS come first·

This has been witnessed throughout all spheres eversince
And it shall always be the same:

Mind is the gatherer of the stack.

No gorgeous fruit and rich harvests in the fields
Without virile people to tend to.

No grandeur and splendid castles in the countryside
Without royal clans in the country.

No majestic sports arenas
Without heroic competitors to stride in, for after all

In creation visions always come first·

Every single thought I bear in mind
And all that I do —
A continuation of the inexhaustible,
Stuttered grand Boom of Primal Creation -

Be they the crudest matters on Earth,
Or the most heavenly under the sun.

All are born in and out of mind.
Therefore it is our privilege to
Conquer and enhance this world through mind, as

In creation visions always come first·
