Hi All.

Here is a Poem written by my friend Eric.


ORIGIN OF SIN


When Cain met Able in that open field
When Cain slew Able the love did not yield
the fruit the tree did bear.
Able in his absence left a forest of
misunderstanding - mountains of pain
fears deeper than all the oceans and
imagination greater than the Heavens.
Love was given meaning when that first
life was taken and in a burst of tears
the first war had ended.
If life can be created and taken away
could it not be recreated - duplicated -
fabricated - could it not all be just a dream.
As stories are passed and time fades the page
the truth to your heart can soothe the rage
that fears can bring - there is water in the ocean.
The power in your mind can heal the pain
and turn the mountains into meadows.
Love creates a chain that links us all
so that forest is nothing more than
one family tree.
