Jehovah
took the elements and formed them in a ball
He added dust and particles to make the sturdy wall.
When it was finished he found just the right place,
And sat it down so gently right there in outspace.
He gave it a mighty whirl to get it to soar,
And it rocked this way and that way, like a top upon the floor.
So he surrounded it with gravity to stabilize its place,
And the gravity kept it from falling upon its face.
All the seeds is what he planted next, it took him many hours,
And up came the mighty Cedar trees, and the most delicate of flowers.
Yes, the earth is alive with life, everything began to grow,
Then Jehovah looked down and said, "Now I need someone to mow"
Here in lies the creation of man, to care for Jehovah's garden,
Do not eat from that one tree, God said, "For there will be no pardon".
So he took a little bit of dust and formed the man just so,
Creating him in his likeness from the head down to the toe.
Everything was going well, Adam was enjoying his life,
Until he noticed he had no mate, so here in lies the wife.
Young, beautiful, tall and no doubt thin,
She came strolling up to Adam, all his heart to win.
Satan, told her, "You will not die", God would never be so mean!
But I looked around me today and they're nowhere to be seen.
