The Story Of Numbers Poem by Ken Rozen Meniano

Once upon a time,
There was no number.
God made the fish, night and day and the creatures on earth.
He never made mentioned ofnumber' creation.
One day, Adamasked " How many apple did you eat? "
Eve replied " I only eat one! "
Then, he continued asking " How many snake tried to temp you? "
Eve replied again " I had seen only one? "
Then, they went to the apple tree counting severalripe apples
They both count " one, one, one, one one, one and one …
When God heard them counted the same number,
He listened one more of their monotone sound.
Then he pondered to Himself and said
" I have to give name to number after one! "
He then called all his angels in heaven.
So many of them that God summoned them to think
To think and give each of them a name to a number.
Then, God was happy because from that day,
Adam and Eve knew how to count apples in that apple tree.
