The First Date
Let us momentarily contemplate
The discourse on the very first date
Adam: Father You've been busy lo' these six days
Would it be too much to ask for a help mate?
(From a rib Eve became my wife
Then ribbed me for the rest of my life)
Eve: Oh Adam ! Where shall we honeymoon?
Adam: I hear Eden this time of year is in bloom
(We had our first date in the Pleasance
She bone of my bone. We cleave as one flesh)
Adam: This rose (of Sharon) is for you my bride
Eve: Who's Sharon?!
Adam: Let's take these horses (I've named) for a ride
Through the Sharon countryside
Eve: Oh Adam! Look at he stars and moon I adore
Adam: Breathtaking my love they've been since Day Four
Oh my fairest with kisses better than spice
Let us again be together on Day Eight and Nine
Now let us return to our demesne
As Father did intend
