I am a Peculiar Man

The might hand that made the Heavens

decided to create a similar form

A form that resembles the Almighty.

Thou the form was fearfully

and wonderfully made,

Not all look the same!

 

The external yet internal are peculiar.

All possible outcomes tried out.  

The parts, organs and tissues

Tenderly formed and connected.

All resembling the deepest yet

marvelous creations present around.

 

Man, himself became the integral part of creation.

Yet he took it for granted without much understanding.

The character and persona was poisoned yet he was saved

For in grace, he was pruned like a vineyard.

 

The process was meticulous and the

outcome was magnanimous.

Bygone were the days of glory

after the fall.

 

Blood and sacrifice was it all,

That needed to bring order to

The deadly chaos that takes one

To Hades, a place meant for the fallen,

 

Sacrifice was sent from above

Spilling the last drop of blood

To save all around up to the future

So that anyone can connect to the

Relationship that was shattered through the fall.

 

The Calvary was our resort.

There we find new beginnings

New Hope with a new life,

There the Darkness turned all to Light.

 

The peculiarity returned

All possibilities to be similar is lost

Paving way for uniqueness

Back from the past!

 

There was I, finally reunited

Rejuvenated, returned to the rightful place

With all resounding assurance

Of Hope and Joy to lead a future

All amidst the chaos

Yet the peace of the Creator

Through the sacrificial blood of the lamb

And the guidance of the Holy Ghost

Separated the Chosen from the rest.

Thus the peculiar man was completed.
