Living with Nature School on Blog

That was long time ago, we've forgotten,

    save the archives hidden by the sea;

the Sin, the greatest blunder then -

    imperfection that man could be. 

And in the dark and through eons of time

    praying, pleading for our cause;

here and beyond even in distant clime,

    we sought to find the Garden lost.

Blindly, always searching, save the meek;

    wealth and power, gods of the bold;

we build cities, amass riches - all but freak,

    for Eden isn't made of pillars and gold.

Let's build a temple of worship of trees

    in a little corner down the glen;

rebuild the ruins laid by life at ease

    and bequeath them to our children. ~
