GENEALOGY 

 

Adam and Eve stat down one day

to study their family tree

and as they did the leaves fell down

and the lineage was there to see.

 

And having studied it closely

and grinning from ear to ear

Eve very quickly concluded:

‘It’s a very small tree we have here’.

    Thank you Michael for my first laugh of the day.

    A fine write and pic M. Erm yes. Only one branch on it at the time - those two themselves?
    Oh I won't get started on 'me, myself, and I'. is that one person or three people? The family tree would be an awful jumble then!

    • Michael Edwards

      Better than you, yourself and .. err... It? Could be a yew tree ! Thanks O

    • BRIAN & ANGELA

      ADAM & EVE ~ Thank GOD
      It wasn't ADAM & STEVE

      Michael,
      First of all, I love the painting!
      Secondly...
      Thank you for the laugh!
      It was great!

      As I commented to Hood and Gold, this is a great Sunday morning! Reading each write and the comments was enjoyable, engaging, and entertaining!

      Have a great Sunday!

      ~Laura~

        You too - pity there is such a few of us who take the time to comment - and I might add, have a sense of humour.

              • Michael Edwards

                They were a pair of tinkers weren't they !!

                • Lorna

                  It was all that running around naked........ then God invented the cold.

                  • Michael Edwards

                    And underwear.

                  • orchidee

                    You seen Mr Druff yet? Was he in that family tree?!

                    • Michael Edwards

                      Found him - he's not well - in fact sycamore than he was yesterday.

                        There's Miss Sue E. Side too, but I don't fancy finding her! Oh dear!

                        • Michael Edwards

                          You must be Joe King - Heidi Clare I'd got out with her Raynor Shine

                          • orchidee

                            You seen Joe Bloggs among those people?! And why is it not Fred Bloggs, or Ken Bloggs, or.......?
