Echoes of Lavender

Cassie58

mist rises 

as newly birthed disc of sun 

kisses easterly horizon’s cheek 

promising heightened heat on a 

sultry summer day 

 

flimsy chariot clouds 

fly past at rapid speed 

in a blue sapphire sky 

hurtling on a journey 

to certain dissipation 

 

we walk waist high 

through scented spikes 

of fragrant purple lavender 

alive with a charm of  worker bees 

buzzing busily at the seams 

 

he asks me if this 

is a touch of heaven 

i’m not sure i replied though when i die 

if it echoes what we share here 

then maybe dreams become reality
