The Garden

This was inspired by a picture my Daughter-in-law sent of our granddaughter.


Poem Artwork

Last night I dreamed I was walking through the Garden of Eden with flowers blooming all around.

I walked peacefully along with a light breeze blowing and birds singing, a beautiful sound.

 

As I feasted my eyes on the flowers that grew I became lost in the beautiful sight.

The flowers of different kinds all bloomed and sparkled in the light.

 

It looked to me as though God simply painted a living picture for me to see.

Of all the places in the world this was a wonderful place for me to be.

 

Suddenly the birds all took flight and flew off in one direction.

There was a place on further into the garden where the flowers were even more beautiful and of wider selection.

 

I then realized that this was not Eden I had found but the gateway to eternal life.

I followed the birds for I now understood that I would be forever free from life’s cares and strife.

 

A kind and gentle voice spoke to me through the breeze that whispered through the trees.

He said, “Welcome my child come have a seat and you can sup with me.

How inspiring my friend, a touching and heartfelt write that reminds us that we must keep striving to enter in to that eternal city...our eternal home. Reminds me of that song that I love so much...I Can Only Imagine...it's more than a mortal mind can comprehend! Beautiful write, outstanding imagery, and a beautiful photo, what a precious and beautiful little girl! Enjoyed!
Blessings,
Joyce B.

Beautiful grandchild. Stops to smell the flowers. Nice daughter in law to send you such a beautiful poem about the Garden. Eden was supposed to have been so beautiful for Adam and Eve. Nothing can compare with it I was told. This write is comparable to all the writes on the den and is so true a write. Makes me long for that Garden in Heaven and to be with Tom soon.

Mavis asked, "Am I a ghost again? I don't remember being a ghost, but I know I was." Do you believe in reincarnation?
