(This is my interpretation of the photograph presented in Hoot's challenge) THE HAND OF GOD It is the hand of God bringing forth His own likeness It is the birth of a spirit the passing of one life on to another it is the product of life's yearning for itself the perpetual motion of the soul a part of the Heavenly Spirit being reborn into human flesh in innocence, purity, and beauty it is the hand of God cradling His likeness comforting the soul and welcoming it onto the earth for one more attempt one more human lifetime in which to try to achieve the final destination to reach the spiritual level of Light of Love, of Himself a soul about to to embark on the journey set out by God This is Life Itself cradled in the purpose of life This is the child of God This is His creation This is a baby Elizabeth Santos [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (edited 01-03-2000).] |

Liz This was great. I like the way you built up the topic with layers of texture, always keeping the subject of the poem in the foreground. I especially like the undertones of hope and promise. This was a very positive, uplifting poem. |

Excellent reply to a challenge!! Challenge well met I think!! ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ Love is such a lonely art, and death is but a taste. Minds are merely instruments that often go to waste! ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ |
