What if someone else stood under that tree
where that serpent of old tricked Adam and Eve?
Would they have the smarts to challenge his lie,
or would they eat of the fruit knowing they'd die?
One baby rat has a story to tell
when he woke up in time to break the lie's spell.
The lie is like slumber to those deceived,
but the truth can awaken those who sleep!
Can this riddle be solved from reading this book?
Can a fish be caught without baiting the hook?
Why was the serpent's lie so delectably enticing,
like a cream-filled donut with chocolate icing?
