Tranquil alarms
Welcome, Take a seat, relaxing,
Tranquil garden alarms
from the laid back look to the busy bees
Tranquil garden alarms
from the ice cold drink to the sun burn skin
Tranquil garden alarms
from the dreaming of you when you wasn't here
Tranquil garden alarms
from the silent breeze carrying next doors shouts
Tranquil garden alarms
from running hand in hand when it's not ours to take
Tranquil garden alarms
from closing eyes counting down till the last
Tranquil garden alarms
From drifting on clouds never finding the way
Tranquil garden alar..

Tranquil garden alarms
from running hand in hand when it's not ours to take
Tranquil garden alarms
from closing eyes counting down till the last
Tranquil garden alarms
From drifting on clouds never finding the way
Tranquil garden alar..

I don't take drugs
but if I did it would be in a tranquil garden
actually has a slight catchy beat to this poem
bit musical even, but choose drug icon xD

This is so good ... Just what I needed to wake up to. As crazy it may seem I even read it backwards skipping the line "Tranquil garden arms" to see if the imagery still worked, and that's what a garden is ... A seamless escape with no beginning nor end ... marvelous ink.

I like the juxtaposition of "tranquil" & "alarm". You know, a garden is a great example of this contradiction/dichotomy...because the garden dies only to be reborn. Its own death & decay is what gives it life. The right amount of manure & compost can eventually translate to healthy, delicious meals.
Your garden inspires a peculiar spirit. I am imagine hot days buzzing in the garden when reading this. A few "mood enhancers" are most welcome on those days toiling in the field, you know. With cold beer after. I'm keepin' it simple these days.
(I, of course, refer to marijuana. I would never recommend the harder drugs...they aren't conducive to garden work. AT ALL.)
Thanks for the toke, Rose :)

This was a read I was forced to ponder a bit, as you present words that on the surface seem to be opposites. On full display is the evidence of a great poet.
On suggestion--- it may read better if in "from the dreaming of you when you wasn't here", the "wasn't" is replaced with "weren't".

Rose, i like this new style the repetition of alternate lines as it breaks, it makes us pause and think with each new line escalating the story.
Very well done!
