In The Garden

Unclothed in the morning mist… In a garden paradise Man and woman walked naked - hand in hand Beautifully unbraided in the dawn of the aurora Created by the Master… The One and only One   Their images opulent- in the clear silence of radiance Surrounded by beauty in His palatial gardens They stood in naked luster Born without blemish or stain Until the devil slid along beside them Burning their eyes with sin... And their bodes connected by rib and clay   Satan silently roared his evil deceit… In his shameful hated ways staining forever...  The color of life And the pale ghosts of the future... Which would be lost to his guileful diabolical ways   But hope rings eternal… For God did not send us out among strangers He provided us His ways To outsmart that imposturous angel And for us to blossom… In the dust of Adam and Eve’s lust     by anne p murray - 2013

i feel like if ever there were to be a full poetic version of the bible this would be in it. i loved the way you described adam, eve and even more so Satan. you showed us man's downfall but you also at the end showed us the way back god. lovely
