About the Poet
Hello,
My name is Tammy Straube and I am an avid christian poetry writer that has been writing for quite sometime. The poetry that I write is only to 'glorify' God. I write from the heart and I do not
necessarily have one particular style in mind. Previously, my poetry was published on www.christianpoetry.org by crossway publications.
It is with great sadness that I tell you that they have closed that website down due to the new owner not being able to keep up with the
demand of the website. I was fortunate enough to have met some wonderful christian poet's from all around the world there and fortunately enough I am still able to keep in contact with some of them. I also look forward to meeting new christian poet's here and reading their poetry that they write. I hope to be an inspiration to other's as well, with what I write.

Chime Of The Day April 23, 2025 Banished Viewed Last 24 Hours: 13 times By Gillena Cox Other Poems by Gillena Cox View / Post Comments Regarding This Poem Banished   From the earth was fashioned, From the likeness of God, the man;   And the breath of life, Breathed into him.   From Adam's rib, Was fashioned, A helpmate called the woman;   And the breath of life, Breathed into her.     The garden, their paradise given There to live in, To have of fruit with exception.   But the two they fell, Into a trap laid well, By the wiley wiley deceiver; Clever clever he;   Approached the woman, Knowing she, was held high In esteem by her man;    With skillful debate Was she baited, she ate; Then she to the man to sate   Tasted of the fruit forbidden, From their eyes, veiled Innocence slipped;    Exposing to them at the hip, Their loins in full nakedness, Which they taught to cover With leaves.   From the Lord God ever, There is no hiding; He knew of their deeds.    His compassion meted them, Garments made of skins; His wrath, banishment With statuses new defined;    So then the woman, By Adam, was named Eve; Fitting her function given By The Lord God; child bearer.   Banished then, and sent , Out from their garden home; They went; Wanderers for a new home.     Then Adam slept with his wife Eve; child bearer.     Banished  © gillena cox 2009
