Could I reprehend the God for letting snake enter paradise?
Ignominious thought! Puzzling demise of all virtues!
Yet I have done it over and over again.
I pull my gaze away from this cumbersome thought,
and let my Friend help survey the blessings untold.
But when the snake becomes a crocodile…,
“No fear dear one,”
I hear Aslan say, in The Chronicles of Narnia:
“Call on My Name.”
He does have another Name on earth.
