Category: Genesis

In a garden so lush and divine,
A choice led to trouble, malign.
With fruit that was sweet,
They faced great defeat,
And toil marked their days, by design.

In a dream, a great ladder did rise,
With angels that climbed to the skies.
A voice from above,
Spoke of promise and love,
As the earth held a glimpse of the wise.

In the garden, Adam and Eve did stray
And ate from the tree they were told to stay away
They heard God’s voice
And had no choice
But to face the consequences that day

There once was a man named Abram
Whose faith in God never did cram
He was promised a son
And his name would be one
A blessing to all, not a sham

After the flood, God made a vow
To never destroy all for now
A rainbow he’d send
As a sign to commend
His promise to all, and avow

There once was a priest named Melchizedek
Who brought out bread and wine, so to speak
He blessed Abram that day
And gave thanks in his own way
For the victory that Abram did seek

There once was a man named Adam
God said he needed a pal
A helper and friend
To be by his side, ’till
The Lord made him a gal.

There once was an Eden so fair,
God planted a garden with care.
He placed there the man to be king,
And from the soil, life did spring,
A paradise made for us to share.

The serpent tempted Eve with care
To eat the fruit of knowledge there
She took a bite and soon did see
That Adam followed suit eagerly
They found themselves in shame and bare

There was a man named Adam, so bold
He needed a helpmate, so God told
He formed a woman from his rib
And made them both a garden to live
It was then that the Lord said, behold!
