Adam Speaks To Eve
I was all alone
When first I did roam
Through our Paradise,
So I asked Him above
For someone to love
And He made you, oh, so nice.
You were a pain in the side
When I first did abide
To let Him borrow my rib,
But Eve it is true
When first I saw you
I was certainly glad that he did.
Then you were a pain in the neck
When you said, “What the heck,
Let’s eat the apple forbidden.”
And a pain in the ass
When you and that asp
From Eden had us all driven.
So stop nagging me
To find a fig tree
So you can buy yourself some clothes,
We’ve committed a sin
And now within
The evil is starting to grow.
But in the end
I’ll admit my friend
That even with this pain and sorrow,
I’d have to say
It’s a better today
Than if you weren’t here tomorrow.
Dedicated to LMB and all Eves without leaves.
I think its time we returned to Paradise, shed our insecurities,
our fear of our naked bodies, our outter garments and all hop into the hot tub together.
Mine is heated and has plenty of room. All are invited to make Poet soup.
