  Losing Eden


there once was an Eden garden
found in a life’s pardon
enchanted with special powers
filled with colorful word flowers
an escape from vulnerability
the sanctuary of tranquility
a home of composure
from life’s exposure
afraid,  my mind always felt
this paradise would melt
and today when I went at dawn


VANISHED…………..
Eden was gone

"...the rest is silence" (Hamlet)       Shakespeare

Now, now, just relax!  I think you have found another Eden with beautiful words for you to share.  ME

I've always felt that Eden is where we are. . . and if we fear we're going to lose it. . . we will. . .

excellent Helen. . .

Eden wasn't lost...just it's occupants.
