The Search for the Rabbit Hole, or was it a Snake? (August 7 [Skyler])


Gardens.
Flowers.
Plants.
Bugs.
We stroll through them. We plant them. We tend them. We imbue them with magical powers, especially in movies and fairy tales.
What if it was real? What if there were magical happenings in the garden? What if it were real? What if we could be transported to another plane of existence by entering a garden?
Well, I'm not sure if I can say for certain either way, but I would like to imagine that there are places we can go to escape the harsh realities of the world(s) we have created for ourselves. A place, where we can step through the barrier and enter into a realm of existence where we don't have to worry anymore; where we can just sit in silence and be at peace. Some people find this in music. Some people find this in books. Others, still, find this in gardens.
The butterflies dance. The bees buzz. The birds chirp. We are whisked away by the scent of the flowers to a place that only exists in the garden.
There is a magical barrier that surrounds the garden that disallows any sort of worry, hate, or other worldly concerns to be brought in. When you step into a garden, your worries are wiped clean. Your concerns from the day wither and die. It is a peaceful place where negative energy is not allowed to dwell.
Magic.
Flowers.
Bees.
Birds.
