Lavender

Streams of colour In constant motion showing shades of beauty hidden Powered by the wind As it caresses the river of scent Gently, softly, lovingly And moves through the rows Never stopping, always moving Following the wind Lavender tributaries in a Sensual scented sea of colour Never ending.

Hello Roger Turner, nice to meet you. Your poem is beautifully written. I love lavender. I use it to make myself sleep. I once sampled a a small glass of lavender water. I was surpried to find I liked it. Have a nice evening my friend.

so glad you enjoyed it. Look up the photo "Lavender" by William Carr, a photographer from Las Vegas. That was the basis of my poem
