Demetrios Trifiatis Poet Free verse

The Breath of Life

Don’t ask, my friend,

How much of His breath our Lord 

Has breathed into each of us*

If a cubic millimeter it is

Or

A cubic decimeter,

For it doesn't matter at all

Since HE is infinite,

And the infinite divided by any number,
 
Infinite remains

Thus, Into you and me, His infinity has breathed,

So, by following His Word,

You and I, my brother, my sister,
 
With

The passing of time, perfect we can be,

As our Father in heaven is perfect,

In His holy ways!**

*Genesis 2:7
“And the Lord God formed man of the dust of
The ground, and breathed into his nostrils the
Breath of life; and man became a living soul.” 

**Matthew 5:48 
“Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father 
Which is in heaven is perfect.”
