Lavender Fields of San Juan

 

Lavender fields cover

the rolling San Juan Islands,

perfect place to go to recover

from the worries of the world.

 

The perfect place to twirl

around and feel like a girl again,

as herds of cows wander around grazing

on the fresh mounds of lavender.

 

The salty ocean air mixes

with the fresh floral fragrant

scent of wild lavender instantly

boosts your moral.

 

If you keep a watchful

eye on the carefree ocean's bay

you'll likely see the

whales frolic and play

with the silver dolphins

who flirt and taunt them.

What a glorious picture you've painted with your words .. I'm off to buy a ticket right now!

Lavender, the perfume of inner calm, the touching of somewhere distant yet accessible - almost a touch of The Lotus Eaters and the way of life in wonderful colours, scents and .. whatever.

Now, this is a remarkable piece of work, Ms. Harrison, and it's not only because lavender is my favorite color, and the aroma I favor. I can almost smell it now, reading this poem, and now I want to go to San Juan. I guess I ought to save up my money; if the lavender fields are anything like this work suggests, I may just decide to stay. Very well done, Ms.
