On The 15th We Turn On The Heat

It seems preordained, November 15th we concede,
And start heating the house.
Most years we stop about March 31.
We live in a consistent, and persistent, climate.

I wonder what climate persisted
In the Garden of Eden?
Perhaps they had neither heat nor cold,
And, without rain, the garden stayed lush?

What happened to God’s garden after Adam and Eve left?
I imagine God would have maintained the garden,
Because he intended to have other residents.
In fact I suspect it was never intended for man only.

Eden must have been the most beautiful place on Earth,
Where all good and obedient creatures, and plants,
Would have lived in peace and plenty…
Except for that lousy snake.
