An Earth Reborn

Once again and many moons from now, I will find a peaceful existence on this Earth.

After the Armageddon, the Earth reached an impasse and remained dormant for centuries. Deep in the bowels of the Earth, seedlings began to grow. Defying gravity, tender sprouts traveled miles to break the surface with sturdy vegetation. Having traveled so far to find the light, the plants were much hardier than before. Perhaps they will show man that nature was meant to survive and thrive.

Between areas of dense plantlife, clearings of proportionate size invited man and woman to settle in privacy and harmony. Men and women were in appearance on the land, but in fewer numbers than we knew. A baby cries somewhere in the distance. The population is already growing.

Fruit grows in abundance on the trees. An apple grove beckons enticingly. Would Adam be so quick to sample the forbidden fruit? Vegetables can be found in their first state of blossom. There will be plenty to eat soon. A cornfield rests to one end of this particular clearing. We must not be overly greedy and return some of our wealth to the soil so that we may have a bountiful crop in future years.

It is time to start anew. Will we make the same mistakes again?
