We live in a world of beauty created by God
Man takes his needs to create, to build
to invent, sometimes doing the impossible
Not just building a home, or a business building
But finding new healthy ways to live perhaps green
Many are now concerned about global warming
Others are trying to prevent illness or find new ways
to help the sick, still others think it supreme to go
into outer space or land on Mars to find out whether
it was ever inhabitable.
There is no end to mans thinking of what he can do
to improve or make better a world in which we live
Science and medicine have come a long way
I remember the old ways not by being there but by
listening to my grand parents. My Grandfather was
a cabinet maker while my grandmother worked as
head cook in a restaurant
We all have talents if we only knew how to use them
Now with TV and video games I fear we have limited
our younger people to learn to create
Well, this should concern many as these will be the
people in the next generation of our precious world
Our paradise a place of interest, travel, and education
I know the title is My Paradise, and that part is true
For our home have serenity, contentment and peace
We built it that way
With God's help you will find your Paradise!

Poetry by Joyce
If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God,
Who gives generously to all without finding fault,
And it will be given to him.
~ James 1:5~
