The Ballad of the Forbidden Fruit

The Ballad of the Forbidden Fruit

Behold, first was a good seed. A good rich seed, Godly handpicked. Godly handpicked to be a special rosaceous tree. A special tree rained by heaven blessings. Heavenly blessed to bear this Forbidden Fruit. This Forbidden Fruit, her Eros granted apple.

Her flawless body, The Garden of Eden. The home of this beautiful tree of life. The shade giver in scotching times.

With roots of real joy and happiness, And branches of full of leaves of love. There it is a hallowed fruit.

A fruit so blissfully appetizing. A mouthwatering, seemingly delicious one. So juicy, I bet you would want to take a bite. A spring you would not stop drinking from. But, Sorry this is the Forbidden Fruit.
