Creation of Adam

Michelangelo had the vision,
To paint a fresco from his heart.
For it would surpass his time,
To be seen as remarkable art.

The Sistine Chapel’s ceiling,
Displays the inception of life.
Michelangelo’s rendition of,
God creating Adam and his wife.

Unbearable and surmountable odds,
And four adverse years to fathom.
He strove painstakingly painting,
Biblical scenes thus, creation of Adam.
