Abstract

The Garden Of Eden story as it might have happened. In the format of a Limerick.

Young Adam was born in a garden One day he said “I beg your pardon” “Alone I have been,” “And I wonder just when” “Will a girl help some parts of me harden?”

God looked at Adam and giggled Adam’s brow furrowed and wiggled God said, “Okay look.” “She can’t clean, she can’t cook.” “But that Eve, she sure does have a nice jiggle.”

Eve stood and stared at her body Adam said, “Eve you’re a hottie!” She looked up and saw She was born an outlaw Her instinct was instantly naughty.

She wanted to taste every sample The juice from each fruit was quite ample. She couldn’t resist the sweet apple kiss she bit into the one off-limits Apple.

The story, it gets even stranger. One apple somehow a life changer Poor Adam? But wait! What of the fruit’s fate? Adam’s Apple truly is a danger.

When any man speaks, you might see it Adams Apple, yes you can believe it. Seems like Eve took the fall She pled guilty to all But it looks like sir Adam did eat it.

Nobody speaks of the details and everyone blames the first female But what if the fruit had been something less cute? Like…eggplant. Who would notice this detail?

It’s tricky with topics this ancient Some will get mad if I say it unlocking old shackles on the subject of apples I really just think Adam ate it.
