On that fatal day she sat in the garden amongst the trees!
She could not resist and went closer and found it pleasing!
She is startled at its gaze as she looks in its eyes.
There is a rustling sound and to her surprise a
serpent is resting amongst the branches. He seesher coming and slithers to her side. And whispering
he said “Come touch the fruit and you shall not die”Listening to its deceptive call she then falls. Gathering the
fruit, she quickly runs to her mate that he may eat
and join her in her fate!
Among cattle and every beast of the field you are cursed . . .
And the Lord God said to the serpent
“Because you have done this you are cursed and on your belly you shall go and you shall eat dust”
*Genesis Chapter 3
