Umbrae of Lavender

prancing in the forest
not expecting lively
finding it anyway
twelve ragged edged florets
umbrae of lavender

periwinkle spider center
lying in the woods like a discarded faerie
pleated but not pleading
creating a fey fantasy
of mystique and life

Simply fine stuff, Caren. I'm getting an accent wall painted in my living room tomorrow. It will be a mess. Don't know how much productive I'll get done. My housekeeper is doing the painting. It's not lavender!!!! It's called Pinocchio or some silly name.

It's a darker sand color which is going to look great with all my accents in the room.

Pinocchio - is it flesh-colored? And whose flesh?
