Alternative

I slowly awake to a place that seems
out of this world where nothing clicks
 or matches with anything familiar
I find myself walking on clouds
while above me trees grow upside down
along with grasses and flowering plants
I looked around finding that animals
were keeping me company grazing
on clouds or just floating long sides
there were birds singing sweetly
So peaceful, no jarring sounds
it seemed I was inside looking out
perhaps I had woken up in paradise

Hey my friend, I hope you are ok.. poem beautifully transports the reader to a realm of enchantment and wonder, where the boundaries of reality blur and the imagination takes flight. The vivid imagery of walking on clouds, trees growing upside down, and animals grazing amidst floating clouds paints a surreal picture of a place beyond the constraints of the familiar. The tranquil atmosphere, punctuated by the sweet melodies of singing birds, evokes a sense of peace and serenity
