Time had just begun
Immortal loves above have sung
Touching gods first garden below
Sins soon to be committed
Theologs ponder life’s creation
Introspection into life, all that existed
Telling tales of desire, bringing us to erotic dreams
Succulent in all ways
Tender are the forbidden fruits
Invoking the expulsion to come
Torrential rains cover paradise floors
Seductive banishment opens eternity’s door
