Dear Eve,
Didn’t we have bites of apple from the same forbidden tree?
We played the same silly games at Eden in our childhood spree.
You always had a liking for weaving emotions of vibrant colours
that my heart was unable to comprehend more than a mere follower.
Remember I, you held to your bosom the lifeless babies of some unknown breeds,
that day, ordinary was the blue sky’s pouring
but mystifying and unfamiliar was your blue eyes’ shedding tears.
Perhaps your mildness I had taken as fearfulness.
I got to realise your character the day you saved me from that hungry animal’s jaws,
I was baffled to see how you had added your love, sacrifice, compassion
and a tint of smile that you bore for me to complete my life.
Undeniably we have limited time to live in this garden but unlimited life to live.
Forever Your’s Adam
