A Glimpse of Heaven

In the womb of beauty
There lies a land of rife
Coupling the morning sun
Eden sees its life

Yet the two residents
Were evicted with no warning
From this lovely garden
Of living without knowing

A fruit, once eaten
May sew its seed in time
And growing in their simple minds
Was knowledge sublime

As they see the garden
Slowly fade away
They realise the great price
They were forced to pay

But this not as penance
It spores from long before
While they lived in Heaven
They knew nothing more

Eden’s only Heaven
When you close your eyes
You hear the spoken truths
But miss the sighted lies

They now know of nakedness
But why wait this long?
In their delusion
They saw nothing wrong

Naked to the world
Both in body and in mind
They now sought the knowledge
That they could never find

Adam and Eve
Now set out with greater goals
Hide from sweet words
And fill the mind’s wholes
