Eve's Apple Poem by Barry Middleton
Eve's Apple
the apple was sweet
but filled with regret
a kiss to remember
and pain to forget
moments of pleasure
incur a great debt
we all take a chance
we all place a bet
and sometimes we win
but then pirouette
the next time to lose
and take what we get
A metaphor to remind us we all commit mistakes sometimes preyed by our greed or simply by our instinct to know the unknown
Absolutely. Virtue is simply trying to do better, it is not required or possible to be perfect. Thanks for reading and commenting.

Beautiful poetical brush-notes of painting.
Thanks Dimitrios, glad you likes it. Wining and losing are always good themes I think.
