Eden’s Sky
Edit 1.0 (Bryn)
In Eden,
bodies never age.
Clouds never move
in Eden’s sky, where you and I
won’t change, nor love in time
grow strange.

Three lines are straight from it.
I’ve punctuated differently in the first 3 lines, which changes the emphasis slightly
An experiment

Hi Busker,
I like this. Particularly the ending. It has a nice feel to it and the line break at love is very good IMO. I don't like how "Eden's sky" follows the title so closely. Consider moving sky down to the second Eden. To me, that line has a nice rhythm and sky resonates better with the 'I'.
Thanks for the read,
Bryn

Bryn - that’s an excellent suggestion. Incorporated.
