I said steak not snake!

As the serpent watched 

With glee, tongue slurping ,of 

Eve about to pick the apple.

Adam looked on hungrily "Don't!"

"I like apples! But I'm not vegetarian."

"You're right!" said Eve.

"What's an apple without the pie!"

"Yeah! But an apple a day keeps

The doctor away" says Adam.

"If we had a doctor!" says Eve

"Well! What about we try....

The Steakhouse? " says Eve 

"We don't have one yet!" said Adam.

Then, an idea was born

As Adam grinned  "The snake!"

Hastily, the serpent killed

Snake kebabs were dealt.

Eve wasn't at fault

A lovely meal was had.

And the Apple?

Well! A codling moth strayed

Laying its eggs, bare

The grubs got to the truth

Nothing was spared.

Meanwhile,

Adam seeing Eve

Naked, excited said.

"Stand back!" 

I don't know how big

This is going to get! 

Eve looked on 

And smiled.

" The bigger the better!"

" You snake you!

haha well i love it Andrew, why not have a bit of humor sometimes, that snake deserved its end anyway, mind you i'm a bit worried about those grubs in the apple, if they evolved into humans where are they now and what are they getting up to, maybe another poem for you to write there :)
