There is a
reach of grassland
in the distance.
Here everything happens,
just for you.
Each moment the
glorious treasures
in the universe
reassures the heart
of the promise
of each day.
Together with all
creatures of the
earth breathes,
same air and
drinks same water,
as life giving force.
What a beautiful
sequence of love
in sharing.
We become food
for each other
Give and take
sustained us.
Out of Eden,
man tilled the ground,
toiled for food,
sweats in his garden.
Outside of Eden,
man struggles
to survive.
Our health failed,
none eats right.
Death is upon us,
for there is
no peace,
man made wars
ravaged the cities,
age of reason,
eludes man.
But now,
man must recover
the paradise lost.
Back to Eden
we must go,
to restore the
lost glory,
for man now
lives in a
faulty state.
The whole system
is deplorable and
apparently appalling.
To rebuild the
failed relationship of
pure and divine
love once again,
man must toil
once again to
recover Eden,
for this paradise
is not lost
after all.
