The Ousting of Adam and Eve

Life was a blast in the Garden of Eden for Adam and Eve,

   'Til the wrath of their Creator invited them to leave!

      They were having a ball traipsing about in their birthday suit,

         'Til that sneaky snake offered them a chomp of forbidden fruit!

Oooh, if only Eve hadn't convinced Adam to take that first bite! Just think of the world we'd have today. Snakes are hiding in all the hedges... Awesome clerihew, my friend. Hope you are doing well. I think of you often. Love, Carolyn
