The Divine Intuition of a Woman

This is a poem about our first parents, Adam and Eve.

A Garden created on the Eve of full formation
Man, an image of the Most High
Time frozen in a perfect place
With only two

A Serpent cunning and shallow
Seeks the hearts of the pure
The fruit forbidden
Adam, firm in the faith

Life Giving, the Lady eats first
Ensnared by the Knowledge of necessities
Man makes amends
Banned, destined to die and live by the sweat of his brow

Opportunity opens, as two they till the earth
Faithfully fulfilling their eternal obligations
Without The Sin there would be no life
For with no death, life is lost

All hearts turn to the ancient
For ancient wisdom proceeds eternity
Men are not stained by Original Sin
Our sins are our own


Adam Larry West
