God spoke creation into being
God intentionally created everything in existence
God created Mankind as the pinnicle of creation, in His own image. He also created Mankind with greater care and in a different way than the rest of creation (sculpted as opposed to spoke into being)
And so on.
So I would call it a myth insofar as it is trying to describe and define something with no perfect equivalent in human experience. I would call it a true but imperfectly related account rather than a folk tale or anything like that. After the Noah story, I read the bible strictly literally. Pre-Noah, I read it as I read the creation account.
I just hesitate to name it "myth" because myth is so hazily defined these days.
