A Chemical Girl



There was a man who was so alone.
He decided to make a woman for himself.
He studied biology and chemistry.
He worked many hours and many days.
Finally he was finished and she was perfect.
He loved her so and so she loved him.
They lived many days and many years.
As they lived into old age, she passed away.
He lived for three more years and finally his
heart gave out.
As he reached Heaven, he was excited to spend
eternity with his love.
Alas, she was no where to be found.
He was able to create her, but only God
could give her a soul.
