The answer is they DON'T;
they can, but they just WON'T.
In Garden of Weeding….
Turtles were once feeding.
Then God said: "DON'T EAT PEAR! ",
which gave Turtles a scare.
But along came Slim Jim;
said: "Don't listen to Him.
He's all pumped UP,
but He's JUST a PUP.
Yes, His bark isn't slight,
BUT He's GOT no bite."
So Ava T. did eat;
gave Eddie T. a treat.
Pears did taste SO good;
Turtles ate all they could.
Next day came God on stroll,
and nearly lost control.
ALL pears were eaten;
temper started heatin'.
"GOD WILL DAMN THEE TURTLE.
FROM GARDEN I DO HURTLE! "
Around Garden went "rod",
placed there by their god.
For not doing as told,
they fear "Rod" (we call "road") .

Talk about quirky! Hilarious, Bri. Seems to me that for someone who doesn't believe in God, you talk an awful lot about him! Perhaps you would like to... Yes, funny making it all about turtles and pears. Do you know that there's no mention of apples in the Bible? Another smeer campaign - spread by the pear industry perhaps.
Very entertaining! The title is what brought me here and was not expecting Adam and Eve. I loved your spin on the old tale. 10 from me.
{damn: ] (what you smokin} :) list goes here( ? God job there, (repentance) is in order! ! ! Maybe? I want to hear about; [Cheribum and the flaming sword] and the trees of; [{fear]} and {knowledge} did I do that up good, CaPtaiN? ! ! ! [! ! ! ! ! ! ! |
Good Job Bri! Really PEAR - just to make a rhyme with scare, rod and God- funny but weak (did you get spanked a lot as a child?) , and eaten and 'heatin, ' I didn't know you were an OKIE too. But being an OKIE myself I have to let all these sins, grievous as they are pass I guess. Shoot, I may have to revise my opinion (just slightly) of a postman's imagination. Of course it could be just luck, or maybe God decided to bless you for at least once paying attention in Sunday School. Still, all in all, not a bad effort. You need to remember though you are competing against my 'Turtle' poem in this contest as well. Since we have decided to go with a democratic voting procedure, it seems fair for me to enter my own contest. I must warn you as well that I have more than 1 trick up my sleeve. (remember the two extra votes left over from July's contest?) Of course I do promise not to use them to vote for my own poem(s) . Oh, shoot, I just let it slip, there is no rule yet that says you can just enter 1 poem. I'll give you a 10.0 for effort here, though don't expect any special favours in the actual contest. Ha!
...Interesting as ever.....! You have taken the contest in good spirit.... the change from apple to pear is intelliglble...... If it had been apple... probably before they were eaten up by turtles, someone else would have exhausted them! (I am sure you know what I mean...!) But I don't understand why you have made Jim, slim Jim!

I would like to translate this poem
An entertaining take on the true original episode of Adam n Eve. U gave them new names and animal bodies tempted to the forbidden fruit. Kudos for the jaunty rhyme. I hope slim jim neva gets us trapped.
