Man meets Woman

The world will never be the same again

Not that it had any case to be

Man meets woman, Adam and Eve

Since their parting outside the gates of paradise

They had lost their selves

At the beginning of time or even before

Together they saw the road they came

That they thought was the wrong one

Or was it the right one?

Why did he tell us not to eat from the tree of knowledge?

Now we know

He wanted us to eat from the tree, crafty old fox that he was

And continues no less to be

Now that the lesson is learnt the wrong one has become the right path

The pain gives way to a silent growing pleasure

Together they went back in time over the ages

Seeing how they were reduced to their shadows

Empty cages from which the parrots had escaped , long long ago 

Now the parrot has come back to its nest

No more the cage that it thought it was 

No more the parrots that they thought they were

But eagles waiting for the thermals

To take them up into the new sky over the blue oceans
