Gershon Wolf Poet Limerick

Meanwhile, Back in the Garden of Eden

   The Tree of Knowledge said, "Hey, Tree of Life
   I miss that ripped Adam and his sexy wife"
      The snake slithered and he hissed
      The trees vowed, "No more of this!"
   Whoosh! Breeze blew that snake into afterlife

Hilda Greenhough January 1, 2024 at 9:37 AM Good thought of a reversal for the snake (though it's really a serpent. Snakes are good). It would be interesting to go back in time. Your poem keeps me thinking. Gershon Wolf January 1, 2024 at 7:39 PM You're right, Hilda. I should have asped you b4 I wrote this. Smiles, Gershon

Shirley Hawkins January 1, 2024 at 3:54 AM The snake got up the breeze nose For slithering and hissing, I suppose, The two trees missed both Adam and Eve. Who was lying under a pile of leaves?
