TEMPTATION!
Eve, I feel, was not too bright;
Her powers of reasoning very slight.
Would you believe a coiling snake
That tempted you? For goodness sake!
If, on a visit to the zoo,
A cobra sort of hissed at you
'Do as I say, my little dear.
Come into my cage and have no fear.
Let me have a little grapple,
And I'll reward you with an apple'
You'd run like hell! But little Eve
Was, as I say, a bit naive.
Without one morsel of hesitation
She gave in to the snake's temptation!
She bit the apple and then (good grief!)
She covered herself with a tiny leaf.
She must have been a size 'petite',
But then she hadn't had much to eat.
Off she went to find his nibs,
Pretending she was one of his ribs!
They took to sex for all they were worth,
And went on to populate all the earth!
If you find yourself in this situation
Don't give-in to the snake's temptation!

THEY'RE OFF!
Helmets glinting in the sun,
They're off to have a bit of fun,
To ride around the neighbourhood
Obeying road rules as they should.
What a precious cargo this is!
Wave goodbye and blow them kisses!
