Life ~ The Greatest Code Ever Written

He had no knowledge

Of high level languages 

Like C , C++, Java or Python 

Nor did he know

The low level languages 

Of Machine codes and Assembly 

For they did not exist when he began

Yet he wrote the greatest program ever

He had no requirements to be gathered 

Nor he had to list down his specification

As there was no one else around 

Maybe his solitude was his motivation 

He planned his architecture with finesse

And designed it with precise perfection   

He had no process models to follow

With a big bang he began implementation.

The first module he made was Time

He wrote it to be a daemon 

Ceaselessly executing in background 

Creating the plethora of perceptions

Of past , present and future 

Listening to the tireless tunes of time 

He created numerous particles 

which indulged in an eternal cosmic dance.

As 'Time' proceeded he progressed 

He had no release dates to worry about 

So he functioned with his divine comforts

Making sure he produces a masterpiece
The particles he made learned to innovate
To work with each other and collaborate
Expanding in size, complexity and beauty
Deploying what we now know as the Universe.

An aesthetic user experience was created
Of drifting galaxies sequined with twinkling stars
To hold these large modules together
He created a gluing driver called Gravity
Thanks to gravity smaller modules called Planets
Attached themselves to the twinkling stars
Each star executing an almost infinite loop
Of  fusing variable matter into constant energy.

Employing a randomization technique
To choose one of the billion stars
To test his new module, code-named  'Life'
Initializing the recipe for the primordial soup
In the boisterous boiling broth blossomed
An inflorescence of magical polymers
On this chain of special molecules
He checked-in the pivotal part of his code.

In the quaternary quartet of A,T,G,C
He compiled the first version of code

Executing this program with a single click
He watched the play from his abode 

From simple, singled celled microbes
To humans having brains with four lobes
Changes propagated steady and slow
Moulding to the rhythm of nature's flow
