In the garden.

In the garden of mushrooms and lions, the snakes ands tigers can not harm me. Easy for me to see. Do you have an illumination and a channel to the higher self?

...

 

Come with me to the ancient garden.
Follow my lead, for I am the one that sees-
the realm we intend to carton.

Brace your arms, the channel is near to change,
past the wicked gate into uncertainty.
Our consciousness well indeed derange.

Draw your daggers of focus and cut yourself in,
breathe that innocent breathe,
and lock your eyes within.

Where are your feet, can you see your toes?
The snakes, they slither among us,
pay attention because they know.

Quickly, howl at the brightest stars,
the wolf knows not, where we are,
for we have drifted, into a space so far.

Lift your bracket to support your inner need now.
Ride the tiger, to the lions den,
for he is more serene.

Whisper what you have, an appropriate cost.
For the tampering door man beside us-
has rid us of our cross.

Look into my faded eyes, for they see much clear.
The dark sky embellishes my mind;
Drunk, but sober is my fear.

Trance your body to a different level, at my awkward ground.
Float amongst the clouds, now,
we pick from the garden, what we’ve found.

[KATHY SUE SILLS]

Great imagination and imagery to go along with the flow to a well written poem!

[Safe&sound<3 ♫]

i love your choice of words. they flow vary smoothly, like water on rocks. the idea of gardens gives almost everyone peace. you give it emotions, and bring it to life in words. it conveys a very good message. i certainly would buy a book of yours if you published your poems.

[Jas Alejandrino Ramos]

i think i like it:) because it doesn't just describe the garden but it also tells a story and conveys a message.....good work!

[An owl on the moon]

There is so much richness and myth found in gardens that bring alive amazing connections to who we are. You have brought alive a world filled with vivid imagery and emotion here. Excellent, moving write!

[Tina Kline]

I like this. A nice imagery place that maybe once was real before the child grew up. I could hear this as a song as well.
Very nicely done and very enjoyable.

really cool poem...takes one places. as we grow up we imagine less and less, and soon we've lost it all before we've known it....good job man
