[Milton-L] milton's theodicy in haiku

[Gregory Machacek]

I couldn't resist the challenge.  Two entries:

      That Good might know you
Loved Me freely, I allowed
      Your choosing evil.

More enjambment than is typical in a haiku (but, hey, that's our guy).  But
also too light on imagery, which the following partly corrects:

      From a garden's goods,
The fruit that, shunned, would show you
      Loved freely eaten.
