Island of Love

In the beginning there was Adam and Eve standing on a island of love; wrapped in a green leaf fallen from spring. Was it fig? Or was it olive? It doesn't really mater it was the island of love. A fruit bowl of life with a taste so sweet that it did knock some off their feet. First taste of love changing life forever, also with a kiss of death,good and evil as a branch broke and fell from a tree where life began over and over again. Walking along hand in hand spreading love all across the land, in the beginning standing on the island of love.

Mater should be matter and changing should be changed. Some say that Eden was at union of Tigres and Euphrates River. We began to branch out. They were walking along in hand in hand. They stood on Island of Love.
