Poetry

All things that are thus begin
because He had thus spoken.
Not long after, the birth of sin,
though He was among them.
The Creator is quick to bring salvation
as if He planned for it.
He answers the eternal deprivation
of their bankrupt spirit.

Redemption gained in death of innocence,
precious blood and flesh.
His words now invoke repentance
when sin was addressed.

Sin still shows its deadly impact,
death closely follows.
Sadly life spans, they retract,
as evil offends the Hallowed.
Judgment comes from the Patient
earth's fountains do His bidding.
The Ark the instrument of His intent
for rebellion of Adam's offspring.

Life flows again with a rainbow's hope,
again man makes his statement.
A tower states his downward slope,
confusion is thus sent.

Abraham comes, then Isaac and son,
through men God is revealed.
This is His way, 'til Times are done
when His chosen have been healed.

His Son's in here, from Adam to Joseph,
even from the beginning.
God is shown for the bereft,
in spite of their sinning.

In Egypt it ends with this glory,
though Joseph's life was sad.
Jacob's son the final story,
how good can come from bad.
