NAPOWRIMO 2017 DAY 19

WRITE A POEM THAT RECOUNTS A CREATION MYTH






THE BEGINNING OF BEGINNINGS



Impending flood interrupts
Daily comforts of the
Black headed people
Of Mesopotamia
Blessings bestowed

By the Sumerian gods of
Ancient Iraq seven
Days and nights a terrible
Storm released waters
Which over ran the land

A chosen few were saved from
Extinction when the sun god
Utu appears and recreates
Life from the remnants
Of the ark
In the end was the beginning
Of beginnings
