The Garden
Once, Eden was situated
near the confluence of four rivers …
You imagine a walled garden,
a sacred grove,
a threshold between worlds.
You grieve the legacy of exile
enforced by cherubim and fiery sword –
but these create a curious misdirection.
You must abandon the consolation of place
and journey inward –
an oasis awaits
hidden in the spaciousness of your heart.
