What was the earth before there was light
Were there any streams running over her face
Did god walk the land thinking he was strong
How long before he gave her skin
That thin layer did nothing for the cold
The kind that settles deep before morning
When man was formed did he look at the morning
In aw as his eyes registered the first light
Soon moving as he got use to the cold
As it skimmed over his body and face
Unused to feeling in his newly made skin
Strange that god made man so strong
But soon god saw that man was not as strong
As those animals who met the morning
Warm and wrapped up in one another’s skin
And so god laid man down and there was a great light
For Adam awoke looking upon Eve’s face
Never again to feel the empty cold
The did as god told them and faced the cold
Together in Eden as the trees grew strong
And the animals began to know their faces
They were rulers of this morning
Laughing at caresses feather light
Sending shivers trailing across their skin
But there was a new sin moving over Eden’s skin
Its passage leaving a path of smoke and cold
Entrancing all creatures with dancing lights
Whispering to Eve, it told her of the strong
Beautiful tree whose fruit was made of the mornings
Glory and gave the knowledge of gods face
The innocent creatures had god to face
He knew the moment sin had passed through their skin
Adam and Eve hid from god till the morning
Has spread her fingers over their garden turned cold
Sin now strewn across Eden, smelling so strong
Of dirt, with new eyes they walked to god in the harsh light
Not knowing how to face god in the cold
They covered their skin and tried to be strong
As they went into the mornings new dead light
