He Giveth and Taketh Away

The breath of life
is the breath He sends
infuses dust, flesh
of all, and He alone
takes that breath
from dust to dust
framed by the
Creator’s, animator’s breath
giving and taking
the spark of life

Psalm 104:29b-30a
“when you take away their breath, they die and return to their dust.
When you send forth your spirit, they are created;”
