Once under starry heavens

a garden was planted

a wondrous work in the waste wilderness

where lions walked in humility



Once the Sons Of Eternal Joy reigned upon the Earth

and angelic myriad ruled the skies



In his celestial abode the Old One slumbered

the one who formed the world into existence



It was a golden age 

era of beauty & joy

Death was not, nor iniquity

the fountain of eternal life sprung



The Infernal Serpent laid on the verge of non-entity

a doleful shade before the immense gates of Infinity



Once man walked the heavenly path

in sweet ignorance

enchanted by the unearthly beauty of Eden

in ecstatic joy



Once the Daughters Of Light danced

in that realm of mild moony lustre
