Perfection's Sin

This is actually an older poem I wrote in 2004. It is an interpretation of the fall of man, or rather woman. Yet is is not too far off from when we chose to partake in sin, but the redemption of God is so much better. Psalm 34:8a "Taste and see that the Lord is good." 

Perfection’s Sin

Darkness awaited daylight hours,
For he knew what tonight would bring.
Perfection stood in everlasting beauty,
Exploring the pleasure of her powers.

Wisdom came in the form of a tree,
Beckoning Perfection to come and eat.
Yet perfection could not accept Wisdom’s gift,
She didn’t realize the sweetness of the treat.

Seduction came in the form of a beast,
Offering Perfection a seductive delicacy.
Seducing Perfection from celibacy,
Perfection accepted Seduction’s treat.

Oh the sweetness of the serpent’s tongue,
Oh the pleasure of the satisfying juice,
Griping firmly around her crimson lips,
Perfection impregnated with love’s first sin.

She took pleasure in temptation’s first kiss,
Oh the delicacy of nature’s pure sin.
Embraced in pure gratification,
Conviction fell on the virgin’s skin.
