This is so very beautiful. Very refreshing indeed. Who would like to wake up from such dream but then in the end reality hits and so does the alarm clock. Perfect ending.
Awesome write dear

all the best and take care

Rachel
you have painted such a beautiful place with your words. Some where most of us would love to stay...Then that darn alarm clock....LOL....makes you want to break it :)
Great job!
Love Cindy

Loved it. Such a beautiful peaceful poem and then the end, the alarm clock goes off. That was an ending. lol 5/5

This is beautiful, Rachel. So visual - I can almost smell the lilacs (my favorite!)

Rachel.
Oh my dear such beautiful imagery you have painted here. I can't pick a favorite stanza because they are all wonderful. All the various flowers mentioned Lilacs, Tulips, daffodils, Roses, sunflowers, daisies, bluebells and jasmine (jasmine is one of my faves)These flowers bring so many different colors to the taste pallete. The imaginatipn it provides brings it to a reality. The sadness of it all is that it's just a dream.

In the garden of my dreams
Lilacs run free for miles
Tulips and daffodils smile
Cotton clouds float above

All is peaceful and serene
Solar beams reach down
To give the kiss of warmth
Baby's breath welcomes you

There is a throne of roses
Thorns cease to exist
Brooks wave with water hands
Waterfalls throw rainbows to the sky

Lilly pads shimmer
The trees gently whisper
Sonnets of the coming spring
Harps and flutes accompany

Lilac bushes scent the air
Sunflowers dance and play
The great oak gathers carnations
In our lives all is fair and just

You and I stroll down memory lane
Daisies recant times past
Before us is the fountain of youth
Yet we don't drink

In the garden of my dreams
True love reigns supreme
Bluebells and jasmine applaude
Then the alarm clock rings

Of course I didn't mean to repost your poem I was looking for stanzas to include and forgot to erase that part. My apologies.

Lovely dream garden...lol...wish I had it! I love all the flower references...some of my favorites! Nicely written with just a hint of surprise at the end!

Lovely write ... there is so much love and innocence in each line... it brought a smile on face ... beautiful words and capturing imagery...
keep writing... :)

What a sweet dream, the end of this piece really brings the whole poem to life. Such a pretty thought, nature blooming on our behalf... Very nice! ;o)

There is a throne of roses
Thorns cease to exist
Brooks wave with water hands
Waterfalls throw rainbows to the sky

This verse draws a lovely picture and I can imagine sitting on a swing feeling the taste of
love!

Lilly pads shimmer
The trees gently whisper
Sonnets of the coming spring
Harps and flutes accompany

Yet another verse I really liked! THe whole poem is full of joy & love to hold and smile

The imagery in this just reaches out and pulls you right in to a spring day. Very well done Rachel.
