The Lure of Lavender

As I stand alone in reverie A lavender sky envelopes me. Trees whisper in calls with quiet breath To mark the time of indigo's death. The crisp scent of spring refines the air As dawn graces twilight with colors rare. Still lake reflections in morning light Share an aura with alluring sight.
