"The wind haul off the leaves in the afternoon lull as memories are taken with it." Quote by poet
If only you knew How much I loved you. My thoughts lay on the leave's dew As the brilliant day slowly fades In the distant horizon Clearing the way To the lavender field. A young couple stands Among its scent. They stare into each other's eyes With love in their hearts. They grow, use to the moment rhythms As a little peace descend With the whisper of the wind. Once upon a time, We used to be that couple. 5/15/2024

Nicely painted emotions in lavender field. But i don't know why you said,' once upon a time'. We should try to recreate the scene everywhere at everytime if we can. Amazing Have a good day

Sorry, I didn't know about your husband. It was only poetic comment. I never think to hurt anyone.

Arjun, "once upon a time" was written because my husband passed 6 years now. Thank you for your wonderful comment.
