~Lavender Musings~

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

Grazie mille Pryde, sorry for the late reply, muchly appreciated.

[Pryde Foltz]

What? Who is this? LOl.

[Frieda P]

I got stuck in helioptropic fields lol

[Blue Ivory]

You are amazing, Frieda! You put such depth in your poetry and you always have me wishing I could experience whatever you are writing about... And as usual, that use of vocab you have is tremendous

[Astro]

There's some really interesting and playful language used in this one Frieda. The thought of lying in a field of lavender is beautiful, the picture helps those who perhaps don't know what a field of lavender looks like but it's a violet dream.

[Frieda P]

Thanks Astro, wish my mind could escape there more often, jazzed you enjoyed....

[Astro]

The heck with your mind Frieda, go find one to jump into, the memory will be far more potent for you to return to.

[Frieda P]

I was thinking of taking that balloon ride over the fields in France, but life got in the way..........

[Astro]

Life ain't over yet ;-)

[Frieda P]

Very true, that would really suck especially to end on a Monday. ;-)

[Astro]

Ya but if I was talking to you from the grave, that would be cool. Especially this close to Halloween, that makes for a great plot foundation for scary stories.

[Frieda P]

Hahah I'll see what I can do you twisted so & so....haha ;-)

[TL Boehm]

to where the skies and fantasy hold hands. love that line.

[Frieda P]

Thanks Tam, glad you enjoyed my lavender musings....

[Lydia Shutter]

Violet fires and starry playgrounds giving way to "swirling whirls of azure'd downy druthers" The images are extraordinary, Frieda! Vibrant, dreamy, and magical. Magical musings if you ask me. Lydi**

[Frieda P]

Thanks Lydie, it's the chemicals in joisey, you know how they go to your head ;-)

[Lydia Shutter]

Yea, blame it on Joisey...everyone else does! :)

[Frieda P]

Hahah I know right? ;-)

[Emerald Seas]

That's one heck of a tromping through lavender fields, my friend.

I was momentarily wisked away. Those last two lines are quite the read! Love the journey you took me through this afternoon...

now where are those magic mushrooms so we can do that again? ;) Wonderful write!

[Frieda P]

Laughing here, I thought you had them.............!

[Coyote Poetry]

[Jamie Cook]

Awe man that was like that one dream I had where it was me and my mom and she gave my a bag of doritos...it was FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!! But this was way better, so delicately written and so beautifully composed. Awesome job Miss Frieda! Never has there been a disappointing write nor one that wasn't beautiful :D

[Frieda P]

LOL Jamie, were they lavender? ;-P

[Jamie Cook]

Pssh no...they were ranch. But still they gave me the urge to run through a patch of lavender flowers! :D

[Frieda P]

You're high on life hon, I love that! ;-D

[Jamie Cook]

I love that!!!! ^-^ That gives me the tinglies ^^

[Shadow Paradox]

The mind's eye hold lots of magic especially in Dreamland. I dwell as much as I can maybe too much. Your words has strong imagery more vibrant than the beautiful picture. "Heliotrope" I love that word, sunset came to mind. This is very rich and artful :)

[Frieda P]

One of my favorites too, thanks muchly Psyce :-)

[annie lee]

Well, you flew me to the moon ... and several other places. As a fairly representative old-fart baby boomer, I can say that this one will get you going where you might have only been wishing before. May affect heart rate, blood pressure -- cold showers recommended.

[Frieda P]

Lol annie lee, hope your ticker is okay.
