Serpent danced so sly and sleek Glistening scales in the fruit's mystique Whispers sift through the garden's air Knowledge was the forbidden affair Was it God who staged the fall In the garden walls so tall Was serpent's charm just a guise Leading hearts to see the skies Eve's hand reached For the apple bright Split the veil of darkest night Serpent smirked Maybe he too was fooled By ancient laws unwritten rules Could this all be by design Divine schemes too deep to find Light and shadow wage their game In paradise they wrote their names Was it God who staged the fall In the garden walls so tall Was serpent's charm just a guise Leading hearts to see the skies Adam's eyes opened wide Truth or trick it can't be denied Serpent hissed with half a grin Ignorance never could win
