Array ( [sid] => 174186 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => This New Eden [time] => 2012-11-02 06:05:34 [hometext] => We would all like to change the world ..... [bodytext] => If e`er the human race should die
And I then stood alone
I`d raise my eyes up to the sun
And take him as my own

For he would be my guiding star
To lead me through each day
Upon my quest to change the world
His light to show the way

The moon my shining lantern bright
The caves my dwelling be
The amber sand my carpet soft
The trees my canopy

For as sole guardian of this earth
I`d wander far afield
In search of all to be transformed
Each blemish thus revealed

And through this wondrous alchemy
The world would hence be changed
Each imperfection classified
And deftly rearranged

Then with my heart, I`d sow the seeds
Of Paradise anew
With each one fashioned out of love
So perfect, pure and true

Each leaf, each bloom, so beautiful
Unveiled for all to see
(But hidden deep where none could find
I`d set the apple tree)

And every creature, large and small
Would roam this glorious land
Released from pain and suffering
To stand at man`s right hand

This earth would hence become the place
Where joy would reign supreme
No guns, no bombs, no tears, no hate
This is my greatest dream

And then a rainbow I would steal
Her colours soft and pure
To carefully delineate
Humanity, once more

And paint the seas with emerald green
The skies with sapphire blue
Earth`s beauty so to redefine
Then give her back to you

Then I, unworthy yet to dwell
In this new Eden born
Would slumber long in deep repose
Awaiting man`s new dawn

And whilst asleep, my one desire
That when our time is here
Each one would live in innocence
And happiness, not fear

For every heart would beat in time
The sweetest symphony
Each breath, each touch, each spoken word,
In perfect harmony

……………………………………………………

May love, sweet love, forever grow
Her seeds, may all forever sow

This New Eden

I don't understand why no one else commented on this! This is great! It literally kept me going along with it until I reached the end, and even then, it made me want to read it again and again. Great poem!
