Eve Speaks to Adam

Today from the Writer's Almanac;
I have often wondered what a conversation between Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden may have been like. I sometimes wonder
if I were that first woman on this planet what would I have thought or said or done in my life. And there are time that I often feel that every day of our lives ,each time we wake up afresh,that the dawn approaches anew we are the first woman and man and have the choice to feel,see, experience life as if this is the nascent moment of our being...
Excerpt from Paradise Lost

by John Milton

(Eve speaks to Adam)

With thee conversing I forget all time,
All seasons and their change, all please alike.
Sweet is the breath of morn, her rising sweet,
With charm of earliest birds; pleasant the sun
When first on this delightful land he spreads
His orient beams, on herb, tree, fruit, and flower,
Glistering with dew; fragrant the fertile earth
After soft showers; and sweet the coming on
Of grateful evening mild, then silent night
With this her solemn bird and this fair moon,
And these the gems of heav'n, her starry train:
But neither breath of morn when she ascends
With charm of earliest birds, nor rising sun
On this delightful land, nor herb, fruit, flower,
Glistring with dew, nor fragrance after showers,
Nor grateful evening mild, nor silent night
With this her solemn bird, nor walk by moon,
Or glittering starlight without thee is sweet.
