THE GARDEN

The Garden

 

Paradise is lost

The sun is fallen

Truth is known

Yet its way is obscured

Bitter harvests now replace

Immaculate conception

And tears flow, from eyes

That willed to see

There is no victory in the outter realms

No reward in desolation

Oh to return from whence we have fallen

To taste of fruit unforbidden

The garden has grown barren

And its hedgerow high

Who can restore its splendor

Who is worthy

I know none…..
