Lavender Mist

She savored the sweet bouquet of his lips

The  taste of elderberry wine~

He tempted with grapes of passion,
                                Overflowing the brim of desire~

 

The delicacy of love ~ she sampled
               Within the burning wick of candlelight~

Love faded with crimson clover sunsets,

But aglow within the gold flaxen moon~

 

Memories swirl in the twilight hour

Within sheerness of the lavender mist~

Gossamer breeze of enchantment,

Lingers in the bewitchment of the wind~

She bids the bare essence of him adieu,

Sachet memories and eyes ~ sapphire blue~
