The Creation of Woman

Dear Readers,

A small attempt just for the sake of humor. Not intended to hurt anyone.


Long ago, Very Long ago, God was caught in a pensive mood
After sending down Giant sized Creatures with violent Nature
Floods and Fires with hellish Fury, Man was sent to live on earth
Man was single no one to mingle, wandered jungles with no one to tingle
God looked down noticed the Gloom, Dull and Dumb was the life on Earth

God sat straight, fastened his belt, decided at once to add some spice
Finding an answer God shined bright patted him self for striking it right

Spring was the season when he sprang the surprise
Pleasure peaked every where on finding this treasure
Gifting Man with compassion God sent this sensation
Woman was his creation whipping out a temptation

Man jumped with joy thinking her a toy
knowing very little he is for a ride
the lust for sex and the need for a breed
drove the Man into the grip of greed

vulnerable was the woman in the beginning days
allowing the man to dictate the terms
confined herself in pleasing the man
remained longtime a captive of attachments

A blessing in disguise was the state of affairs
for the woman hitherto obeying the man
finding the Man’s dependence on her
woman changed wisely to set things right

The dominated became the dominator
The prisoner became the punisher
The suppressed became the oppressor
Man took refuge in the shadow of woman

Male world changed with the moods of Woman
Wealth got created for the needs of Woman
Coffers emptied for the lust for Woman
Man kneeled and danced to the tunes of Woman

God looked down Man stared up
Fearing a backlash God slipped into oblivion
With no one to complain Man opted for solitude
Paving the way for Saints and Monks

This is the best I have read on the subject (sorry it is kind of Biblical):

[h=6]And God Created Woman

In the garden of Eden walked Adam,
alone and a trifle forlorn.
For he hadn't a miss or a madam, ... See More
and he whimpered every morn.

"What's the matter with you?" said Jehovah
"I've given you Eden you know,
and now that you've looked the place over,
I thought you'd be rarin' to go."

"That's all very well, " muttered Adam.
"but there isn't a soul except me,
and talking out loud is a tad 'um -
eccentric, don't you see?"

So the Lord God thought for a second.
Then he said, "Okay, just for you,
I'll make up a mate, for I reckon
that will give you something to do."

Now Adam was really excited,
and asked what this mate would do,
and as God explained, he was delighted,
at the promise of somebody new.

For his new mate was planned to get dinner,
and to cook and to sew up his clothes,|
She would make sure he didn't get thinner
and wash up as well I suppose.

She would bear him some fine sons and daughters,
and never wake him in the night
would take care of the beasts for the slaughter,
and never talk back in a fight.

She would love him with passion unceasing,
and never complain of an ache,
she would iron his shirts, never creasing
the cuffs, as she baked him a cake.

She would be such a model of virtue
that Adam could never complain,
and God said, "She never will hurt you,
or cause you one second of pain."

"Oh God," said our Adam, ecstatic
"what shall I call this wondrous mate,
and what will she cost, I'm emphatic
I must have the best going rate."

"This woman," said God, "that I bring you
is Eve, the mother of all,
The woman that your kids will cling to,
and the one that will come to your call.

"As for what she will cost, she's a jewel,
and a bargain at this special price,
for to you I couldn't be cruel,
and I know you will heed my advice.

"To you, as my special creation,
I offer you this generous rate -
just an arm and a leg your donation.
You couldn't do better, hey mate?"

Quite taken aback, Adam pondered,
then said with a bit of a grin.
"Well what would I get, I just wondered,
if a rib instead I threw in."

The rest of the tale is just history,
for they closed that deal right away,
so it's why we girls are a mystery
to every bloke even today.

Don't blame it on us, Mister Adam,
when you were the cheapskate in Eden.
For every missus and madam
is still trying today to get even.

To ths and srinkarthik,

thanks a lot to both of you sirs, for the words of encouragement. kindly condone the delay in responding.

 

[somanathan Iyer]

Sorry for the abnormal delay in responding Mr. biswa,

I agree that the theme of both your cited poem and mine same. but while yours is direct conversation between God and Adam, mine is just a reporting. Anyway its just a humor only.

 

[amala]

[somanathan Iyer]
