Juliet Ligon Poet Free verse

Birthed By Breath

birthed by breath 
ignited by desire
secretly spun
from two--- one
preciously protected
carried and cared for
within the womb
nourished first
begat before birth
hunger and thirst nursed
by woman's life preserved
cradled at her side
by enabled breath
given by God
who wrought Eve
from Adam's side
formed from clay
birthed by breath
from One--- two
from Father, Spirit, Son
three
man, woman, baby
