Blessed For Eternity! Poem by Denis Martindale

How blessed is Eden now to me,
A Paradise on Earth,
That's stirring up new poetry
That's meant to prove her worth...
A holy realm that God has blessed,
Just like a precious pearl,
Like some handmaiden God loves best,
A wondrous, gracious girl...

As if she spoke with whispered tones,
As gentle as a breeze,
Just like you hear upon the phones,
Soft-spoken, meant to please...
Yes, Eden, you caused me to pause,
Recalling times gone by,
Beyond God's prophets and God's laws,
To Adam's lonesome sigh...

Surrounded by the creatures there,
Just friendship to impart,
He needed someone meant to share
The love inside his heart...
And so he pined, a lovesick fool,
Not knowing what to do,
Alone to live, alone to rule,
Not saying, 'I love you! '

Yet Eden, like a miracle,
Is just the first to know,
A brand new start for one and all,
A chance for each to grow...
Thus love is born within your arms,
As radiant as the sun,
When Adam fell for Eve's sweet charms
Before the day was done...

From Eden's heart came Eve that day,
The day that Adam cried,
When joys from Heaven came his way
In all that God supplied...
Someone to talk to now and then,
Someone to praise God, too,
Someone to hold close once again,
No wonder, his love grew...

Yet Eden, now you're everywhere
And that I know full well,
Within the words of every prayer
Wherever humans dwell...
From dust we came, then flesh and bones,
Yet Eden calls to me,
With whispered wows in dulcet tones,
Blessed for eternity!
