Jacqui Broad - Eve

Sunset,
sunrise.
I wake up
in the
garden of Eden.
I am rich:
dew shines like diamonds
on the lushious grass.
The world so undisturbed,
what am I doing here?
I walk from tree to tree,
picking fruit of my choice.
The Lord is very generous.
Birds fly above,
singing sweet songs
of freedom and peace.
I am alone,
but aware
of watching eyes.
Jealousy
will kill me,
and I'm waiting.
Footsteps.
Whispers.
Silence...
