If You See Eve

If you see Eve,
Tell her she was not a good mother
If you see Eve,
Tell her she could have done better


If you see Eve,
Tell her she could have said an emphatic NO!
If you see Eve, 
Tell her she was avaricious and gluttonous!


If you see Eve,
Ask her why she exchanged a generation for a sour apple
If you see Eve,
Ask her why even a snake was wiser than she


If you see Eve,
Tell her her disease was contagious
If you see Eve,
Tell her her daughters have been infected


If you see Eve,
Tell her her daughters are at it again
If you see Eve, 
Tell her they've exchanged their virginities for an iphone


If you see Eve,
Tell her her daughters have become slay queens
If you see Eve, 
Tell her her daughters have become social media dogs


If you see Eve,
Laugh at her sarcastically for she detested being naked
If you see Eve,
Tell her her daughters now delightfully showcase their boobs


If you see Eve,
Tell her her daughters have murdered many innocent souls
If you see Eve,
Tell her her daughters' wombs have become slaughter houses


If you see Eve, 
Tell her she initiated the song of woes
If you see Eve,
Tell her things are falling apart


If you see Eve,
Sing her songs of sorrow
If you see Eve,
Give her a mournful tear
If you see Eve...

Linda Alice Fowler Date: 10/24/2022 8:35:00 AM Wow, no maternal instinct at all. She obviously was out for her own gratification and reward. Linda Login to Reply Adeniji Toluwalope Gideon Date: 10/24/2022 9:54:00 AM Nothing of such! Here we are today.

Panagiota Romios Date: 6/24/2020 1:52:00 PM Eve lime many of us thought if we stuff our brains with knowledge we will rule the world and be better than God. Many still think like her. Heads full of knowledge impressing nobody. Original verse... Panagiota Xi Login to Reply Adeniji Toluwalope Gideon Date: 6/27/2020 9:24:00 AM That is the true picture of the society, my dear friend. Much love, Adeniji

Andrea Dietrich Date: 10/7/2018 9:31:00 AM Very interesting and original verse. Symbolically I see Eve in many places today!!

Mark Peterson Date: 3/31/2018 6:24:00 PM And all this arises, I suppose, because your were told of Eve, and then lectured by the hour so you'd believe, that authors way back then should not deceive, now disparate wayward lives, of such, how could dear Eve, conceive. This is a provocative piece of work, Dear Adeniji. Its message rings loudly across the ages. Login to Reply Adeniji Toluwalope Gideon Date: 10/7/2018 9:41:00 AM It is very disheartening to witness such wayward lives in the society. Thank you Mark, much love from me to you. Adeniji.

Sanket Jain Date: 12/9/2017 7:54:00 PM First of all, thanks for reviews on my poem. Eve I could not see, but was there in each line to do so. I thoroughly enjoyed your creative verse. Refrain worked. Beautiful poem expresses beautiful heart & poet. Could feel high heart beats of hearty poem. Go on. Review my poems 2 encourage my unique Pari Style.

Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 12/8/2017 12:53:00 PM - Woow ...

Maurice Rigoler Date: 12/4/2017 4:37:00 PM Eve in a nutshell, but Adam's sin was greater, he forfeited his fear of God and headship to a woman. One of the best poems on this subject on the Soup. Thank you for reading my work. Besy to you. / Maurice Login to Reply Adeniji Toluwalope Gideon Date: 12/4/2017 11:55:00 PM Adam was unable to stand against the temptation of a woman. He was not a good father and not even worthy of emulation. Thank you for the love you've shown, Maurice.

Gordon Mcconnell Date: 12/4/2017 10:44:00 AM An excellent piece Adeniji, you really tell it well showing Eve as she was. Really liked this and funny enough the feminist movement tend to be quiet on their first Lady!, have blessed day Gordon Login to Reply Adeniji Toluwalope Gideon Date: 12/4/2017 3:05:00 PM Thank you for checking by,Gordon. Peace be unto your home.

Richard Lamoureux Date: 11/30/2017 1:41:00 PM Powerful and disturbing. Sadly Adam is due a similar poem. Thankfully God has provided us a way back to Him. There is much to contemplate within these words. Login to Reply Adeniji Toluwalope Gideon Date: 12/4/2017 9:03:00 AM Dear Richard, Adam was influenced under the powerful deceit of a woman. He wasn't a good husband though. It is indeed a great privilege to have our way back. Thank you my friend.

Leon Enriquez Date: 11/29/2017 1:55:00 AM Dear Adeniji: Nicely done. You know Eve very well. A real person? Or just an imagery? Like Adam's Eve? All the best then, Leon.
