The Colors of Eden

In Eden’s dawn, where all was new,

Adam and Eve, with wonder-filled eyes,

Gazed upon a world of nameless hues,

Tasked to christen each shade ‘neath the skies.

The Creator’s voice, warm and wise,

Guided their hands, their hearts, their minds,

While serpent’s whispers, clever disguise,

Sought to taint the colors they’d find.

Green, said the snake, is envy’s shade,

The hue of jealousy’s poisoned thought.

But God showed life in every blade,

Growth and hope in each leaf unfraught.

Blue, hissed the serpent, is sadness deep,

The color of melancholy’s embrace.

God revealed skies where dreams could leap,

And tranquil waters of soothing grace.

Red, the tempter claimed, burns with rage,

A fiery hue of wrath unchained.

God unveiled love on nature’s stage,

Passion and warmth and life’s blood contained.

Yellow, sneered the snake, marks the coward,

A pallid shade of spineless fear.

God showed sun’s joy, wisdom empowered,

Golden light that holds life dear.

Black, the serpent jeered, is terror’s cloak,

The absence of all, a void untamed.

God revealed night’s restful yoke,

Where dreams are born and stars proclaimed.

Through every hue, through light and shade,

Adam and Eve discerned the truth:

In every color God hath made,

Lay beauty, balance, eternal youth.

White gleamed pure, and gray stood wise,

Orange burst forth, with pink a soft spark.

Each pigment a gift, a sweet surprise,

A spectrum stretching from light to dark.

And so they named each vibrant tone,

With wisdom earned and insight gained.

In Eden’s garden, colors shone,

Their true essence forever remained.

For in this task, they came to see,

The depth of all creation’s art:

How light and shadow both must be,

To paint the world and the human heart.
