Never Never Land

We all long for that special place;
a place of ultimate perfection;
where all can live in love’s embrace;
and avoid all evil’s detection.

A place described in fairy tales;
often considered “make believe.”
Wondrous stories often regaled;
more than mind can conceive.

There’s never any sadness there;
no disapointment’s allowed;
nor is ever a thought of despair;
not even a hint of a cloud.

Could it be such place is a memory;
a place where all have once been;
somewhere we all wish to be;
and will someday be there again?

Far from a figment of imagination;
this heaven is a place from our past;
much more than a mind’s configuration;
it’s a place that forever will last.

This is the Garden; our place of birth;
it’s far from imagination;
from it, we were cast down to earth;
it was the home of creation.

We remember it as our very first home;
t’was the Garden He planted our seed in;
we were sent out from it to roam;
but we’ll return to this place called Eden.
