thus begun the creation, a science or art.

a pen was held firm in the hand,
wrote few lines that marked a start,
a hymn was forged deep in the sand,
thus begun the creation, a science or art.

a bird that tweets the hymns of life,
to the tune of maestro at the work,
As a creek that not stops to a whiff,
the tone of the song, floats like a cork.

a stage was set in the deep yellow sky,
played were the songs a la concerto,
on the grooves of rays stringed to the sky,
set high in the sky, by an Angelo

This poem has some references to Michael Angelo's fresco on "creation"

The other day, I was wondering who is the polymath I like the most... hence this poem :)

He was an engineer and an artist (referring that in the last line of first stanza)

so it is a meta reference to his inspiration

finger of the paternal right hand" ...
so references to hymn and hand :)
but I wanted him to be a poet
so pen
