A Blind Date In Eden Poem by Phil Ward

Oh God why did you put me here,
What on earth did you have in mind?
Uncut grass and old fruit trees,
There's nothing else to find.

Not even a seat to sit on,
Just a fig leaf to my name,
What are you expecting from me?
It's not funny I hold you to blame.

This is a boring place to be,
No WIFI, bath or tele,
No corner shop or fast food joint,
To satisfy my belly.

But wait a sec who's that I see?
There's someone else what a relief,
Hey, hey she's looking back at me,
I think I need a larger leaf.

Forget about what I just said,
We're dining out tonight,
There's apple on the menu,
Then fig Angel Delight!
