Eden

In a garden full of trees,
And humans alike.
A garden dissected by a slow stream.
And cool pool reserved for swimmers.
In a garden filled with wonders,
only one “wonder” stood out:
Towering above the others.
Even more obvious than the *Khaya* *invorensis*
A wonderful sight to behold,
Face so clean and beautiful like sunrise.
And your voice sounds like a thousand birds
A thousand little birds singing joyously.

A million memories make my brain home,
But with you, I always feel at home.
Like the last ember in the hearth;
The last ray of light before nightfall;
You always bring security and tranquility.
In a garden full of beauty,
You are like Eden reborn!
