The Apple that Tried
to warn Adam
Hung softly on the Tree
Giant red in its Bed
of leaves and wind
humming and SUMMING up
the things it could See
Adam O Adam
the Maker made Thee
to love and Obey
Tell Eve to Stay
Sing to Above
Love and be FREE
Remember that December
is time to Pick
the TREE
Take time to tell
yourself and You
that You are so Beautiful
All the heavens can See
The angels love You
and a simple guy like Me
Follow the Roses
and leave
that Apple Alone
Believe there is Wisdom
in the tablets of Stone
The apple was BITTEN
and nothing was Right
The maker searched the Garden
a Day and a Night
They had to start over
and Adam learned to Name
The animals and the Roses
and all the new children
learned the lullaby
Adam told at Night
Listen to the Apple
as wise as can Be
and so all the nations
call Adam O Adam
Come sing to ME
