Creation Part Two

God swept up the dust and formed
the figure of a man
Exhaled the breath of life from within
And gave animation to this body of sand

You placed into the garden
This man that now has a soul
Where in this place, over all creatures,
Would have his own control.

But soon found out he felt incomplete
And needed a helper he could not find
So God put him into a deep sleep
To create what he had in mind

God removed a rib from man's body
And used it as a tool
To make Adam's other half,
So together they could rule.

Adam named her Woman
For she was created from His bone
Taken out of man, given to man
So he wont be alone.

Adam and Eve made home in Eden
Where they could eat from every tree
Except from the tree of knowledge of good and evil,
And if they did, they would no longer be free

They chose to eat the fruit anyway
And from the garden they were forbidden,
Their punishment was labor and pain
And from God they could not keep this hidden

Yet He chose to still give us life
Through his mercy and everlasting love
This design of the body so intricate and detailed
Could only be a gift of the One who is above
