Raymond A. Foss Poems

What a revelation, those first moments
discovery of the behaviors of children,
of disobedience, and passing the blame,
in that first story of the first children,
the first father, the creator of all
Adam and Eve, disobeying the one rule
and Adam blaming her, and she the snake
How often have parents discovered,
heard the same tale, over and over again
