Wow, a thread that was started 14 years ago.

Now that's a necro-bump!

I didn’t write this poem but it brings back good memories:

Why thumb down a cute poem?? Oh. You enjoy poetry about the jab.

Here is a poem by a woman who later converted to Catholicism:

The Lord God Planted a Garden
By Dorothy Frances Gurney (1858-1932)

THE Lord God planted a garden
In the first white days of the world,
And He set there an angel warden
In a garment of light enfurled.

So near to the peace of Heaven,
That the hawk might nest with the wren,
For there in the cool of the even
God walked with the first of men.

And I dream that these garden closes
With their shade and their sun-flecked sod
And their lilies and bowers of roses,
Were laid by the hand of God.

The kiss of the sun for pardon,
The song of the birds for mirth, –
One is nearer God's heart in a garden
Than anywhere else on earth.

I thought I would never see,
such global insanity.
When a duck thinks it's a moose,
and Yeats says anarchy has been loosed.

So until Birnam wood comes to Dunsinane,
I am off to bed for my head cries in pain.
