When Eve
First appeared upon the world
Nothing including Adam
Knew what to do or say

It wasn’t a garden then
Much rather a zoo
In which all being at best
Little more than animal
Merely existed to consume

It was her gaze
That changed the view
Those eyes which held a secret
To this day as ever not yet told

And yet
However difficult
It’s been at times

There are none even now
Who wish or want
To go back to the way it was
Before man discovered love
