From The Ruins
Of The Earth That Once Was
The Spirit Of The Lord
In Six Pleasurable Creation Days
And Out Of A Limitless Realm
Fashioned Out, A New Creation
Self Generating
And Ever Increasing
From The Inanimate
To That Which Expounds Life
From The Intrinsic To That Which Is Ephemeral
From The Heavenlies, In Its Timelessness
To The Depths Of Waters, That Cover The Sea
By The Intricate Knitting Of His Fingers
He Wove Life Across The Firmament
Through Land And Yet Across The Deep Sea
A Fulfilling Time, In Six Creation Days
The Sixth Day, A Crowning Glory
For The Creation Man,
Created To Rule Over All
All That Were Created Before Him
Even Above All Yet To Be,
A Pleasure To The Creator
But A Disdain To Him
That Once, In His Shameless Fall
Brought Woe Upon The Earth
The Seventh Day!
A Fulfilling Rest, Unto God !
And Yet In Six Formation Days
He Gave Form, Life And Purpose
To That Which Was Created
By The Intricate Workings
Of His Hands, Spirit And Voice
To The Man, His Creation
After His Own Image, He Gave Form
To A Mould Of Earth
That He Might Replicate Himself
God, In An Earthen Vessel !
A Perfect Primordial Tabernacle !
For The Creation Man To Dwell In
What A Pleasant First Formation Day!
To The Form, He Gave His Breathe
He Gave It The Breath Of Life
To The Inanimate Earthen Form, He Gave A Soul
A Personality, An Identity
A Consciousness, A Conscience
A Volition, A Free Will
To The Form, He Gave Also
The Human Spirit
And The Form Received Power To Live
What A Lively Second Formation Day
To The Man That He Had Formed
He Purposed A Life Of Service
Duty And Resource
He Prepared Him
With Grace And Skills
He Located Him
On His Field, His Own Land
To Work And Tend
To Explore With Liberty
A Perfect Placement,
A Grandeur To Behold
The Third Formation Day
Of His Free Will
The Man Built Himself An Altar
And As The Lord Communed
In The Cool Of The Day
He Gave The Man
The Revelation Of Himself
He Taught The Man To Walk Perfect
With His Creator,
In That Revelation Knowledge
Preserved In Communion And Obedience
Sealed Within The Covenant
It Was The Fourth Day In Formation
Beyond His Glorious Walk
The Lord Taught The Man To Work Perfect
Together With His Creator
In Divine Wisdom
In Intuitive Power And Grace
He Received Dominion
Over All That Was Created
To Rule And To Judge
God Manifestation Of God On Earth
In Man, His Workmanship
What A Fulfilling Fifth Formation Day
The Culmination Of All Things
The Completion Of That
Which Was Initiated
In The Formation Of Man
According To God’s Creation Plan
Forming The Female
Out Of The Incomplete Male
Together, As Wholesome Man
Manifesting God In Dominion
The Sixth Formation Day!
The Perfect Walk
Unto Perfect Work
Guided By God
The Implicit Free Will Offering
The Maturing Of The Image
Unto HIS Likeness
And Unto The Perfect Man
A Reserved Union In Perfection
Drawn Into HIS Holiness
By The Way Of The Tree Of Life
Into The LORD’s Rest, HIS Sabbath
That Of The Seventh Day
