What do you know about the greatest Romance?

These lyrics from Prince's, "The greatest romance that's ever been sold." question a mysterious answer.

"What do you know about the greatest romance? Not what U think but what U believe... Can U tell me the reason that Adam never left Eve?"

This Prince song beautifully appreciates Adam's love for Eve. I believe that Adam never left Eve because she is born of him.


This is a poem that I wrote about Adam finding Eve after the fall.
Adam & Evening

This sheet sexy and wet with salt and sweet
Made black and white and laced in racing stripe
Knows tears that run a long divided street
And taste of passion pear so apple ripe
“Shy tonight,” she whispers in bedroom white
Staring on mystery through stained glass eyes
Reaching for comfort his skin blanket tight
Fingers like ribbons his touch gently ties
“Mad tonight,” he whispers in lover red
Straight shooting eyes with his black arrow drawn
“Dearly beloved this night in our bed…
A husband come morning and stranger gone.”

Never no never again will she miss
His heavenly breath and brotherly kiss. ~T

What do you know about the greatest romance?

What do you believe about Adam and Eve?

It's one of the subjects of the novel I'm currently writing..

As soon as it will be published and translated, you'll have my point of view.

Precisely. Whatever your faith, facts are facts and can't be ignored simply becuase they arn't convenient. Adam and Eve did not exist, simple as that.

Anybody can make a song up about anything.
Just because P sings about something, it does not make it the gospel.

Well razor, I suppose none of us were around physically Seven Thousand years ago...Yet spiritually we were in the Heart of God, decendants of Adam & Eve...If U believe that God Himself Split or Shared in the Birth of Adam his Mate...Eve.

What do you mean by "none of us"? We living today or homosapiens? Because the latter were most certainly around 7 thousand years ago and indeed thousands of years before that.

but that wasn't my point. that song isn't about adam and eve. the adam and eve line is just an allusion to the genesis fable.

...in the beginning was the gift..
..and the gift was w/God and the gift was God..
...and the gift came and set its TENT among us..
..1 in the form of a fireball..
...that burned unabated 4 750,000yrs..
..and cooked in its immensely hot oven..
..hadrons and leptons..
...these gifts found a modicum of stability..enough 2 G-I-V-E birth 2 the 1 atomic creatures..
..hydrogen and helium..
...a billion yrs of stewing and stirring...
..and the gifts of hydrogen and helium..
...birthed galaxies-...spinning,whirling,alive galaxies..
..created trillions of stars..
...lights in the heavens and cosmic firnances...
..that made more gifts..
...through violent explosions of vast supernovas..
..burning abright with the glow..
...of more than a billion stars..
..gifts upon gifts...gifts birthing gifts..
...gifts exploding...gifts of light..gifts of darkness..
..cosmic gifts and subatomic gifts..
...all drifting and swirling..being born and dying..
..in some vast secret of a plan...
...which was also a gift..
..1 day these supernova gifts exploded in a special manner..
...sending a unique gift 2 the universe..
..which later-..coming creatures would 1 day call..
...earth..
..their home..
...its biosphere was also a gift...

..from its mother star..the sun..
...new gifts arose..never seen in such forms in the universe..
..rocks,oceans,continents..
...multicelluar creatures that moved by their own inner power..
..L-I-F-E was born!..
...gifts that had taken the form of fireball and helium..
..galaxies and stars...rocks and water..now took the form of L-I-F-E!..
...L-I-F-E..a new gift of the universe..a new gift of the universe..
..flowers of multiple color and scent trees standing upright..
...forests arose offer places 4 all manner..
..of creeping,crawling things..
..of things that fly and sing..
...of things that swim and slither..
..of things that run on 4 legs..
...and..eventually..
..of things that stand and work on 2..
...with thumbs that move 2 make still more creativity..
..more gift-making..
...possible..
..the human became a gift..but also a menace..
