A Genesis Mimesis Part 2
Adam from and by his side Eve blessed to replenish to rule over the things moving land air and sea giving meat to all the green herb the fruit bearing seed after His kind it was good Blessed Poet potentate and man saw everything good on the sixth page heavens and earth finished with multitude to dwell ending his work on seventh page blessed set apart this day for the gracious Host rested even now men search for metaphors similes to fill pages poems and prose words of worth to artfully describe creation life imitates life after His kind even in a fallen world after satans pride Eve being naive Adam listening to her voice rather than God's the Poet maker Jesus in similitude yet He is without sin humbled Himself being born like we the true light came to heal creation walked again on the water for all to believe the Lamb's blood shed thy sin be forgiven thee the Lord of the sabbath still plowing the way the Seed died and rose again God said bringing forth much fruit watering with words blessed are the poets of love saved justified redeemed resting in promised words from above waiting to fly away to greener pastures a new heaven and new earth we look forward to our Maker's life within the Poet's breath
