Beautiful (Fallen) - POEM of the MONTH!

Beautiful (Fallen)
 
Beautiful from the beginning
(Until a shadow slithered)
Created for all the senses
(Until pride entered)
And designed to love
(Until deception of self)
 
The light, a reflection
(Until darkness came)
A reflection of oneness
(Until chaos divided)
A oneness of peace
(Until indifference)
 
The springs of life
(Until a drought)
The bounty for all
(Until a famine)
The kingdom beautiful
(Then came the fallen)

~

(From the author's novel "Three Trees: An Epic Tale.")
