Garden Of Eden Poem by Pardy Mupfumbu

Delightful, a beauty in sight
With no distractions
No sounds of chaotic city life drifting in over some nearby wall
The garden is vast
And nothing intrudes on its peace
Better yet, your mind is clear of worries
Your body untroubled, free from any trace of illness, allergies and pain
Senses free to take in surroundings
You feast your eyes on the vivid hues of the blossoms
Then on the sparkle of a stream
A myriad greens of foliage
And grass in sun and shadow
You feel the mild breeze on your skin
And take in the sweet fragrance of the Queen night flower.
You hear the rustling of leaves
The splash of water tumbling corner rocks;
The calls and songs of birds,
the hum of insects at work...
Do you not long to be in such a place?
