Paradise Found

(Picture Credit - Orsi on Love Emotions, Facebook)

One day I found myself in Paradise,

Completely out the blue.

I don’t recall a warning:

From nothing I emerged.

Into a new dimensional realm

I sprang:

Into a world so lost in vastness

Of space and time.

Somewhere out there

In the outer reaches

Of an obscure universe.

A planet full of life,

Of sweeping oceans

And towering mounts.

A place so beautiful,

Beyond compare.

All peopled by

Multi-coloured multitudes

Of sentient beings.

To where had I escaped?

You may well ask.

The loveliest world of all,

Of course.

A heaven of the heavens:

Our planet Earth.
