Beautiful, Bitter Fruit


She nuzzled through the branches in pursuit For the angel’s beautiful, bitter fruit Her innocent hands grasped it, but was tricked Overcome by his evil, she panicked Threw away the apple to hide error That was overlooked by her Creator Now that the garden no longer exists, Innocence and sin forever persists But without flaw, which was made by mankind, The creature would then fail to bud in mind.
