Notes About The Poem

Alpha and Omega

Alpha and Omega

The reality is that I love men. 
They are perfect, just as they are. 
Not always doing as they are supposed to do. 
Not paying attention to fears that are false. 

Strong backbones, fierce fighters for right, 
and assailants to all wrong. 
Fixing things, making things, creating. 
God loved Adam, 
and he was made in His own image. 
What a glorious fact. 

Woman, taken from the side of man, 
to be close, loved and cared for. 
What a precious gift. 

The two become one. 
A circle is complete. 
A family is born.
Children the blessing. 
For some if not all. 

The greater gift, 
the spiritual walk, 
with each other, 
through life, 
and its ups and downs. 

Depending on God in all things, 
knowing that He is with you...
both.

Beautifully expressed, Ann! Adam had one big advantage over all future men, however --- no mother-in-law... Or wait,... perhaps that's a disadvantage. LOL. Lovely, writ! Blessings, Gershon
