A Revolution In The GardenA Poem by Sumit GangulyThunder,
lightning and rain ceased. They peeped out
of a cave. Bright sunlight
flooded the earth, air was cool
and birds chirped. As they came
out a voice echoed in air, ‘O, my
reflected souls, I've infused
the nature in you contain the
flame of want and live blissfully.' They were made
of simplicity, love and trust. So long they
had no want. There were
plenty of fruits in the Garden, a river
quenched their thirst birds and
butterflies gave them company. They lived here
with toil, love and compassion. Winter came-
everything turned white. With white
hunger they searched for food
their need, reasoning
and will, gave birth to
Satan, who came forward and said, 'The Garden of Eden is for all.' He took them to
the other part of the Garden where eternal
spring reigned, offered them
the God's fruit with a smile. 19th Dec. 2016
