Eve Was African Poem by John Ackerman

Eve Was African

she took of the forbidden fruit & sinned
now where do I even begin?
hands, heart & eyes
taken from a rib out of Adam's side

She would later hide with Adam from the Lord
why so downcast?
Adam was formed first then Eve
what would she achieve?

later to watch as she realized her son Cain killed his brother Abel
may want to put that book back on the table
For the garden of Eden was in Africa scholars have proven
Eve was African & the first woman ever to live

She later sought through tears willing to repent & ask for God to forgive her...
That evil one lurks still to this day causing any to fall prey
Learn to realize the devil's lies

beautiful woman Eve was to behold
eyes with surreal glow
had a magic touch from her head down to her toe
