Hi, Leanne - you would never have found it. It's taken me ages, written when I first began writing 'pomes' (sic) in 1997.
Here goes.
Have you ever look at Adam?
Really looked, I mean.
There's a strange anomaly
Waiting to be seen.
Didn't God create him
From the pristine clay?
So, how come he's got a navel
Shown as clear as day?
Whilst we're on the subject
Was he a rib-bone short?
(God, on his next project
Used one as a last resort)
He fashioned Adam's lady
(Voluptuous and divine)
To bring him creature comforts
And take washing off the line.
But, Adam made a sacrifice
Gave up what once he owned
So, he MUST have had a rib less.
Be lopsided and unboned.
Well! I'm waiting for your answer
Why did Adam have a navel?
And something else I want to know
Who were wives to Cain and Abel?
Here goes.
