Lavender Gardens

O'er feathery clouds adrift a kite 'Neath sway lavender gardens that invite Embracing warm rays of spring sunlight Pining for sweet afternoon delight With glass of wine lovers reunite O'er dreamlike blissfully scented sight The moon tiptoes up the sky so sprite Till she gains apex above in height Whilst I close my eyes to say goodnight I tender my love dulcet good night Spring lavender garden dreams take flight AP: 2nd place 2022 Submitted on March 8, 2019 for contest WK2 MARCH 2019 sponsored by BRIAN STRAND - RANKED 1ST and February 18, 2019 for contest GARDENS sponsored by CHANTELLE ANNE COOKE

Whistfully takes me to a middle English garden in a time that I never lived and I only know through other's literature. Loved the monorhyme, one of the few where the rhyme does not get in the way, if I might say. Terrific penning Line. Congratulations on placement and kudos well deserved.
