Category: Genesis

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!

Joseph’s brothers were scared of his ire
For they had sold him to Egypt in hire
But God had a plan
For them to understand
That Joseph still loved them, no liar

A righteous man named Abraham
In dialogue with God did stand
He asked “Should I spare
The wicked ones there?”
God said “No, for I command!”

A serpent with crafty intent
Said to the woman, “You shall relent
Your eyes shall be opened
Forbidden fruit broken
The consequence of this will be spent
