Sweet lavender
.
Your luminous petals delicate to the touch
.
Yet your scent potent enough to leave a mark
.
Your slim tall stem arises
.
And breaks the minute you're in crisis
.
Impeccable you are, yet you can't see
.
Your colors, your grace, you evergreen leaves
.
Belle eres, la hermosa del jardin.
.
No te alarmes
.
Porque un dia marchitaras
.
Pero tus semillas van a sembrar.
.
Violeta. Hermosa. Lavanda.

Well the seeds were sown in this Spanish beauty - love the idea of writing in two languages - it works so well and this is a most engaging write.
Thank you 🙂
Hmmm I never thought of writing in more than one language. Loved it. Spanish has such beautiful words, expressed well in this poem. 🙂
Thank you 🙂
