Violets On the Hill

Majesty of color, so rich, my words are still I gaze upon their beauty, their promise to fulfill To elevate the senses, to make one lose the will To forfeit captivation by the violets on the hill In regal blue and purple vein, to echo lover’s thrill The whites and pinks of innocence in symbiotic drill In scarlet reds, a theatre of nature’s palette, twill I think I'll know forever, the violets on the hill

So beautiful especially in this season of Spring! I visited my son in Chicago, one Spring. Lovely blue violets were flourishing. A memory with my visit!
