I'd Like to Ask Eve...
You ate of the fruit
For You were deceived.
Did you find out too late
Whom you should have believed?

But you didn't fall down
In a heap right away--
You lost your life
In a spiritual way.

And so, not knowing where
This matter would end,
Did you dread to see God--
Your very best friend?

What made you know
You were naked and bare?
Who thought of stitching
Camouflage fig leaves to wear?

You tried to be invisible
Under the trees,
Hoping to hide
From the God who sees.
