The End of Eve (A Child's Dream)

sophin

everything falls into place at the right time. the sun 

comes and casts its golden rays upon the orchards. 

the apples are red and ripe as they always are. no 

locusts approach the fields. the world is warm and 

gentle. a child learns to cry with laughter. skinned 

knees mean nothing on the playground. no one ever

grows up. no one ever has to. the world spins eternally 

and the night comes with radiance. nothing has ever 

died and never will. the fire will never burn out. the 

rivers never creep from the banks. a dinosaur reclines 

on a rock facing the clouds. magnolia petals fall at its 

feet. it never goes hungry, neither does anything. we 

are always satisfied. flowers bloom in the morning. the 

air is clean and fragrant. it is easy to breathe. the grass 

turns sweet in the dusk frame. we build houses and they 

last. everything stays. everything stays. 

 

Fin.
