Eden

                                 I wonder what it looked like

That beautiful garden they’ve told us about

With four bubbling, gushing rivers

And trees all around that were

Quote

Pleasing to the eyes

I wonder if the grass was a cool as the evening breeze,

As soft as a silk blanket

I wonder if the flowers

Were the deepest shade of violet

The brightest of reds,

The purest of pinks

Or if they were a color we have yet to see on this earth

Oh that beautiful garden

With birds chirping just around the bend

Whistling a sweet melody

Just for you to dance to

And the animals

Now thought of as beasts

Would sit purring at your bare feet

Oh the peace

The love and purity and hope and peace

In that beautiful garden that,

On this earth

In this life,

We have yet to see.
