On a hushed October night,
A Ship was set aflame.
As no one saw who struck the match,
No one took the blame.

But months before the Grand Ship burned,
A gathering was held,
A karmic weekend at Idlewild
For friends who felt compelled.

The weekend hostess saw the flames
And suspected that the plot
To ignite the Grand View Ship Hotel
Was sparked amongst her lot.

The motive may be blurred at first,
But with a sharpened eye, 
The culprit will reveal themselves
To perceptive passersby.

Garden of Even is the opening piece of the Idlewild Collection.
