Enticing Scents of Lavender

Enticing scents of lavender waft On the sultry summer breeze Sounds of the meadowlark soft Almost bring me to my knees. I worship the God who made them Over those vast eons of time Whispering a prayer of thanksgiving In a cheerfully measured rhyme. 'Tis a vision of possibilities, I see In nature's ordered presence A marvelous panorama of drama Which, surely, includes you and me. The brotherhood of man invites All things in the scope of creation So we must be careful not to intrude Obstructing with our wilful violations.

"lavender blue, dilly, dilly..." I got the idea for this poem from you. And, yes, I couldn't get that song out of my head for hours!
