Lavender Spirit

Stone heart petals 
fall softly 
in the lavender of her gentleness...
The melody of her smile 
offers angels to tired eyes-
I walk a little straighter
(concrete morphing to diamond cascade) 
down the path of her light. 
reacquainting with the footfall of youth...
As she sips my raggedy dreams
and briar patch truths
she rides life like a starry stream fire~
Toting stone heart petals
back into the lavender of her spirit.
