Verse 5: God’s Image

God’s Image

 

Simply ask to take off her clothes.

She willingly accepts offer.

Standing is God’s image to Adam.

Beauty meant to be blind.

Not covered is in layers of cloth.

Reviews

[Fabian G. Franklin]

If, indeed, mankind were created in the image of God...we have certainly denied the power of that replication considerably but are rather determined to form our God in our own image; a thing of our own making. I don't believe God would consider mortal beauty (as we consider beauty) anything more special than the green of grass...all grass is green...simply different shades. And we never give thought to the miracle of its being as we tread upon it day in and day out.

[Glen Yumang Manese]

I would say God's art work of man is his own reflection...the mirror...says a lot about you...and the moment he decided to make us...his opposite likeliness became...and transformation of mankind will never be quite like his creator...but given his attributes --- since the mirror cannot justify that by simply exposing the physical presence...

[DIVYA]

Nakedness is beautiful and natural. It is us who impart wrong connotations to it. Built in God's own image...how can it ever be anything but pure? So beautifully written...

D -- thanks for your feedback to this verse...

Deep and powerful Glen... This one really ponders us, the same time, it's naked beauty.
I will come by to finish this book, I enjoy it so far... ;)

I only have one hard copy left with me here in the Philippines...and the rest are in the USA...someone wanted to buy it...but I can't quite part with it...its the physical feel of a book...and nothing quite like --- that feel...so I told them --- on my first trip back...I'd get them a copy right away...understanding my thoughts --- they understood...

[Charles V. Hayden]

Glen, I read several of your poems. They definitely will make one think. I particularly like God's image. Very nice writing! Good luck with your books!

So very true well done.


Without the make up and jewelry as that is
the worlds standers worldly things not Gods
and many have surgery to fix things like these
celebrities one I knew to be so beautiful and innocent
at one time The girl that played as Baby in Dirty dancing
had plastic surgery when she really didn't need it, it is sad
that ones don't see they're already beautiful they're listening
to what the world thinks and sees so the world says make up
jewelry and plastic surgery is beautiful ones believe them unless
they know they're already beautiful in Gods eyes .


So beautifully said thank you for sharing this wonderful piece.

We are all created in God's image. We are all beautiful in His eyes... so as to the eyes of the one who loves us.

Nice piece though it is concise, Glen. Keep shining!

[VelvetRosetta]

Meant to be blind by the sin...but beautiful in the eyes of how God meant it to be...wonderful!

[Glen Yumang Manese]

VelvetRosetta --- thanks for your time and review...of my work...I will be by to return the favor...

[gabrielle]

Succinct yet it has a crisp bite of reality. we often cover ourselves with clothes, make up and even undergo aesthetic surgeries in order to look beautiful. We must have forgotten that we are all beautiful even without those.

[Glen Yumang Manese]

Gabrielle --- thanks for your time and review of my work...well-said in your view of this piece...
