A late 60s early 70s vibe to this one. A George Harrison influenced song with lots of slide guitar.

Story behind the song
A song reflecting the passing of the 1960s ... a 'post Beatles' solo album kind of song ?
Lyrics
Imaginary Garden ... David A Briggs (c) 2024
Intro: slide guitar
I've got lots of time, for the things that are on my mind.
There's even some joy to find, here in the daily grind.
And now that all our yesterdays have already been and gone,
the dreams we had when we were young, live forever in the songs.
In imaginary gardens, on a bright and sunny day.
A place to stroll together, what would you say?
I'm picking up the pieces of the mess you left behind.
I waited here so patiently, I waited here in line.
now I tend to my garden, and I sometimes feel inclined,
to pick up one of my guitars and write a poetic line.
In my imaginary garden, on a bright and sunny day.
A place to come together, what would you say?
quiet, introspective instrumental section.

They say, "all things must pass, all things must fade away".
What is certain, is that night changes into day.
Our lives are just a space in time, we've lived them many times.
It seems that we are all just here, counting out the time.
In imaginary gardens, on a bright and sunny day.
we will stroll together, what would you say?
