East of Eden's Land

East of Eden’s Land multicolored blossoms glow. By instinct we surmise why such beauty was planned to divert our eyes from wild weeds that also grow east of Eden’s Land. Concerning sacrifice, Cain didn’t understand the link twixt the root and stem ~ he needed to know, having learned that seeds don’t sprout just by sleight-of-hand. Creator and Man in proper perspective show working the soil, providing sun and rain, we band together: one in what we do, where’er we go east of Eden’s Land.
