I’m not sure where this one came from. For some reason I had a vision of Adam and Eve discussing their peculiar predicament, but it made me think about all relationships. A successful one incorporates a lot of giving and taking. Of course, one should be careful when taking what has been forbidden, eh?
The Serpent Between Us
Oh, Eve,
Said Adam,
Laying a firm hand
On her shoulder,
What have you
Done now, my love?
Adam,
She replied,
I fell into
A lust for
Knowing and
Shadowy desire
When offered
Much more
Than a
Plump
Red
Apple
By the
Serpent sliding
Soullessly into the
Arbor.
Eve,
What will become of us?
Asked Adam,
Looking longingly at
The proffered fruit
Perched in his
Lover’s small hand.
I suppose
Said Eve,
After Adam took
His deep bite,
We will
Look for fruit
Together,
Out there
Past the boundaries
Of our
Paradise.
Praying for Eyebrowz 
good one, Leslie!

“Serpent sliding
Soullessly into the Arbor.” More than interesting post. Forgive me but I’m about to highlight bad form, little decorum and display my heathen manners by linking to my take on this subject… won’t happen again http://1xpad.com/2013/04/15/that-forbidden-fruit-loop/
