Oh!Hi!
I’m so glad I met up with you.
I’m coming back from a long trip to let everyone know.
I went down that road
The narrow one
The one less traveled
You know the one I’m talking about.
The beauty and peace you cannot imagine.
No fear of being killed, robbed or cheated.
Just like in The Garden of Eden
Oh!My!
You should see
Oh!My gosh!
Animals, the lion and the bear-
Sleeping side by side
A baby playing with a rattlesnake.
I was so surprised and afraid for the child.
I was told not to fear-
No harm will come to this baby child.
The old has been washed away-
The new is what this beauty means
No war, hate, fear or death-
Only love, peace and security.
In words that you will understand
This is called Paradise Found
No longer Paradise Lost.
Join me won’t you
Come! Lets go on a trip.

Love Bon-Bon

Bonnie -

I'll join you if you stay by me
This is something I've just got to see.
No war, no hate, no sickness either?
Let's run, not walk, nor take a breather !!

Great write! hugs, Chris

Going on a trip with a spunky, perky poetess to Paradise Found, sounds like heaven to me!

Welcoming back hugs,

Bon
What a wonderful place, many gentle souls have dreamed it exists. It reminds me of the painting by Edward Hicks called "The Peaceable Kingdom" Around the edges of the painting is a poem...You can see this painting at... http://www.creativeprocess.net/resources/curideas/peaceable_kingdom.html
I have been to the place you describe, for only moments of course...
It would be certainly enjoyable to stay, just think what poetry could be written in an atmosphere like that, the words that would come forth would rock the world, although yours here have shaken mine this morning...
enjoyed

Oh my sweet Bonnie
You have described heaven, or something very near. I want to go, Oh please, Oh please!
