From the Soil of the Earth

by Marilyn Ferrell

Black, brown, red, yellow, and white,
we represent the soil of the earth,
a melange of human blood
from God's unchanging hand,
we are His kinsmen,
hailing from His native land,
and no words can hinder us
from being who He says 
we are in Him;
Eve was flesh of Adam's flesh,
bone of Adam's bone,
And Adam was the likeness of God,
and thus, what can hinder us
from being all that we can 
be in Him?
