Bible Story Poem by Linda Hepner

Adam he loved Eve.
She wore him on her sleeve
but first she had to sew,
while he learned how to hoe.

Abraham loved Sarah,
though had to be bewarer
of jealousy and sent
his mistress from the tent.

Isaac loved Rebekkah,
there wasn't a home wrecker
to spoil her family,
her son Esau was he.

Jacob loved Leah's sister,
although he nearly missed her
by kissing Leah first
while Rachel became cursed.

Joseph loved a lady
whose past was somewhat shady,
but being rich and famous,
he never tried to blame us

for what his brothers did;
of him they would have rid
the family of siblings
descended from the riblings

begun by Eve and Adam
who never knew they had 'em
to populate the planet
and grow grass on the granite.

So take care, all ye folks,
examine those egg yolks,
the seed you see may be
the start of family

for some great chicks and roosters
who don't need any boosters
and who if wise we'll choose
to crow about the Jews.
