~Lavender Musings~

Photo~Lavender Field France

Fly me to another dimension

soar me to new heights 

breathing life from celestial vaults

out of touch with worldly endeavors

my body aching for violaceous fire

spirit desires a starry playground 

take me from this atmosphere

to where skies and fantasy hold hands

spit me out into the universe's garden 

swirling whirls of azure'd downy druthers

my head in the clouds, at least in this moment

daydreaming's reality when you touch cosmos dust

lay me down in fields of lavender for that

 final rush

grand landing of splendorous splashes in vibrant heliotrope

My goodness lady.....sounds like a dream world with filled amazing colors and picturesque scenery in a place far, far away. Although I feel like you could make anything sound beautiful with your style of writing. Seriously, I would love to see your description of something like french fries..... LOL I guess I mean you make everything sound amazing. Ignore me. I'm tired and now hungry :)

[Frieda P]

Laffing my arse off here... ;-) You're a riot Dye, thanks for the glowing review and the smile too...

Francais kissed pommes de terre
scenting the air with promises
touch of salt upon the lips
a year or more lingers on the hips

Just for you Dye Lol ;-)

[Dye]

LMAO... I needed that. :)

[Frieda P]

Haha so did I! ;-)

I'm feeling quite ethereal at the moment, Frieda...this is gorgeous! ...and THAT photo is picturesque! I was shopping saturday, and came across SOS pads...they are now available in a lavender scent! Who knew this, and did not tell me? Lol, it was the reference that threw me off, sorry...

I do believe you do this genre well. It's going in my library, my dear!

[Frieda P]

How lovely of you to say Kelly, I was captivated by the photograph which prompted this one, not to mention I'd love to take a ride if I weren't such a chicken, ha....so thrilled you like this one, thanks Kelly!

Lavender is grand isn't it? This is a totally breathless piece that comes to rest in the perfect place:

lay me down in fields of lavender for that final rush

I read your words, closed my eyes, and was surrounded by all manner of violet, and smelling lavender... Gorgeous picture you have painted here, Frieda. LOVE the word violaceous - very cool word choice!

[Frieda P]

I love it when someone can feel the poetry, but smell, wow, thanks Rita, you made my night! :-)

[Jack...]

If only this daydream were falling from the skies upon me. My breath escapes me as I soar above this wonderful enchanted land that is flowing vivdly from your mind and your delicate fingers. Frieda, as if love were drawings, pencil sketches on the heart of two as one, your words breach me, fill me and drive me to dreams never before encountered.

Amazing my sweet friend, for this has me swooning.

[Frieda P]

Wooo Jack, turnabout is fair play, it's about time I got you to swoon...ha, thanks so much my dear friend, just daydreaming...

[Justaguy]

I read that, but I think I need to again. I think it is way above my head...lol

[Frieda P]

Just me daydreaming about lifting off into the clouds on a hot air balloon, I've always wanted to do it, but I have this deathly fear of heights, only reason I fly is because the gypsy in me loves to travel....actually the gorgeous photo prompted this one, thanks for reading, you don't always have to get it, but 'above your head' was close. ;-) Thanks...

[Justaguy]

Oh duh. I guess if I had looked at the pic...I might have been a little more...enlightened...lol.

[Frieda P]

Geez, I slapped it in two places! hahaha

[Justaguy]

I know. I see that now. Talk about not seeing what is right in front of your face...lol

[Frieda P]

Laughing here, you must be a man! ;-)

[Justaguy]

*looks down* Yep. How did you know?...LOL

[Frieda P]

No comment, that's about the only thing you guys can find! haha

[Justaguy]

Oh...the pain!...lol. But sometimes, you girls like that we CAN find it...LOL

[Frieda P]
