Forbidden - Fruit Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

Forbidden - Fruit



Original sin is more
than a matter of eating
forbidden fruit
although that's an
important detail to know.

It is also more than
our first parents
merely wanting to be
"like gods."

Saints, after all,
are called "saints"
because they are like God.

In fact, Lent, Triduum,
and the Easter season
work to make us more
like God than our finite,
myopic vision could
ever understand
