Night Before Christmas

NIGHT BEFORE  CHRISTMAS 

        ‘Twas the night before Christmas: Full Moon show
         An unusual happening: Can you believe?
         In Eden Garden wandered Adam-Eve.
         Both were walking sometimes fast, sometimes slow.
         
         Cheerful couple in garden arena.
        Adam drank whisky, getting too tipsy.
        Eve was normal but tasted sweet Pepsi.
        In free mood, she danced like ballerina.
        
        They hugged, kissed being mad for each other.
        Singing, dancing overcoming boredom.
        But both were eager to attain wisdom.
        Also carefree! For future didn’t bother.
        
        Eve plucked red apple but didn’t want to share.
         What to do? They fought for a red apple.
        Eve ate whole, Adam went to the chapel.
         Eve gave slant glance, danced and pranced with feet bare.
     
        Eating juicy apple delicious
       Eve turned intelligent: Adam foolish.
       Eve became better half to accomplish.
       Knowledgeable night spent before Christmas.
