Lavender, me, lavender, blue

A most delightful �chore� � harvesting and gathering my lavender! I can only tell you how delicious and fresh, beautiful and colourful is my labour of love in the following three haiku.

 

Lavender harvest

Sweetness loiters on the breeze

Blue spun in bunches

 

**

 

Lavender soft sky

Echoes fragrant blue flowers

Embracing my arms

 

**

 

Lavender and lace

Big old pots by the fireplace

Delicate blue grace

I loved it! I am not the greatest haiku expert, but I embrace poetry that can paint me pictures and show my minds eye, what is told. You did, with these examples; all I miss now, is the smell of lavender in my house :)

Haiku is a special writing form, and actually not that easy to do unless haiku runs in your veins. I'm a free floater, i write in different ways and forms and more so the free form. It takes another form of skill, to paint pictures with haiku, but you mastered that, quite easily it seems.

Kudos for this. Keep on painting those words as eloquently, and I may too be a "haiku'er" with you as an inspiration [smiles]
