OUT FROM PARADISE, by MARY JANE CARR Poet's Biography First Line: Though I would not quarrel with justice Last Line: Adam and eve. Subject(s): Adam & Eve; Bible; Eve | ||||||||
Though I would not quarrel with justice, My human heart must grieve For my poor evicted ancestors, Adam and Eve.... How they went out from Paradise, Startled and sick of mind, Dreading to face the path ahead, Fearing to look behind; Oh, terrible world that leaped at them! Be still, my heart, believe That he clasped her hand, and she comforted him -- Adam and Eve. | Other Poems of Interest...ON THE SEPARATION OF ADAM AND EVE by TIMOTHY LIU ADAM AND EVE by LUCILLE CLIFTON I HAVE BEEN A STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND' by RITA DOVE METAMORPHOSES: 1.
