Children of Eden 

. 

When morning created the mist 

I was happy as a child in Eden 

wandering and singing down 

every magic lane and byway. 

. 

But what was true 

was that 

these avenues 

were mad soft-turning traps 

that led me back 

to Eden's placid streams 

where there is no woe 

and children never grow.
