    Eden

    Life began in a garden,
    Or, so the story goes
    Then, we met a slithering snake,
    And, thus began our woes

    for as long as it took me to get to this poem. i do wish it was longer. it had a humorous undertone to it, for a serious situation that may or may not be true. excellent job on this. it had to take a discpline to stop at four lines.

    WOW Mandi! LOL! Short, sweet and right to the point, huh? I loved the rhyme and the subject. The last line was the most brilliant! "And thus began our woes", indeed! Thanks so much! Love, Rose! (queenrosered) :)

    thanks for understanding that this was all that needed to be said'

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
