| The Creation of Adam (painted on the Ceiling of the Sistine Chapel) |
Recently I've been openly criticizing Michelangelo's depiction of the Creation of Adam as being "creepy and unBiblical" and for Michelangelo being so arrogant that he would even attempt to paint the face of God Almighty. 😔
So now I am going to battle Michelangelo head on within the Artistic Arena with only my tiny fingers and my lowly paintbox of words.
REMEMBER, all poetry should be read OUT LOUD and if you wish to write my poem on your ceiling, be my guest.💁♀️

Dirt Breathes
(by Laura-Lee Rahn)
The heavens and earth from the void was freed
Given Life, to Life the Universe cleaved
"Emmanuel" Creation well believed
God's glory for a moment was sheathed
He stooped to ground and dirt He heaved
Weeping tears of joy for what He had conceived
Then tears of pain for Future-Man perceived
The God-Head in UNITY grieved.
(Selah)
Drenched with tears that dry pile relieved
In Heaven a sacred Covenant decreed
The tender clay God’s breath received
The Creator's Masterpiece finally achieved
(Selah)
"All Behold the Day that Adam breathed!"

"O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.
When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour."
(Psalm 8:1,3-5)
