Fish and Apples
consecrated sea —
the premier splash’ refreshing
before the first bite

The Garden of Eden was sufficient for food. All the fruitful trees were available to Adam and Eve…all except one. The tree of good and evil held fruit that indeed would open the eyes of the innocent. Adam and Eve “took the bite” in listening to the serpent and eating “choice” fruit, in which I mean they made a choice to disobey God. An apple is merely a representative of the fruit since it is not named in the bible.
Fishermen describe the fish as “not biting” when they are not able to catch any or very little.
