Equality's Verity

Male and female --- God created* them both Such anchors equality’s verity Having exactly the same source of breath Designed to bear the Sovereign’s image Optimizing granted growth avenues. Gratefully serving as vessels of love Fulfilling varied roles with utmost best Midst faith that propels assigned tasks and chores Cognizant of gender distinctive traits Sir and Ma'am are needed greatly alike. Beautiful life with Mr. and Mrs. Wondrous family of good partnership As father and mother with might and grace Brother and sister of caring gestures Poet and poetess asserting kindness-bliss.
*Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. February 8, 2020 2nd place, "STRAND CHOICE D..." Poetry Contest Sponsored by Brian Strand; judged on 3/12/2020.

A belated congratulations on your recent win with this insightful piece. It is refreshing to read and hear this biblical understanding of male and female roles within God's kingdom.
