Traces of Lavender
Traces of Lavender
The winds blew through and all that was known
A dusty hat rolled along the grass
Roots of the seeds were not strong enough to hold
A girl's dream of a future come at last.
None could say what lay at the end of the path
Where the wild flowers grew each spring
Left under the gables the hands of the familiar
The cat upon the table no ball of string.
Suns come from the east and travel out west
Tracing a line for the eyes to follow
The chill of snows to the rolling hills
Not wanting to stay but to leave feels hollow.
The dreams aren't for her as they risk too much
For what if they do not come true
Does it matter he asked if they never come to pass
It is the attempt that pulls them through.
The shores are close where giants have stepped
The rocks form a strange nest
Home is not where life leads a heart
Home becomes where the heart comes to rest.
She may not know where the river will flow
Or what destiny has for her in store
Her hair will blow wild in the sea airs
And what was narrow will become more.
The scent of heather turn to strength of Lavender
She walks with head poised high
Unsure in mind yet with purpose filled
Experienced steps will let out a sigh.

What a stunning photo damn! Well done :)
You have a wonderful command of poetry and the English language. Thanks for sharing your sentiment and talent.
thanks for Nice comment
What a beautiful and heartfelt poem, @tarazkp! I am especially interested in those last three stanzas: dreamlike, definitive and elevated. When we sometimes begin the journey, many will tell us that we cannot, but it does not matter. No matter how much the air blows against you, the scent of your soul will guide you, the landscape will open up for you and you will make the landscape yourself. And where you feel good, comfortable with yourself and your soul, where you feel that they are waiting for you, then it is your home. That it's always home where you come back! Beautiful night.
Oh my God it's stunning Photography. Your poetry is charming. You have many issues in your poetry like the wind, the grasses, the sun, the hat, and son one. The poetry can touch my heart.

I liked what this para Said
She may not know where the river will flow
Or what destiny has for her in store
Her hair will blow wild in the sea airs
And what was narrow will become more.
I am sharing what it felt to me and it touched my heart because destiny is doing something like this to me. I felt that It means she may not know about her fate but her happiness which is less now (narrow) will become more and things will become good in future 💗
Thank you sir for this para I needed it .
Very beautiful and powerful! It somehow describes the moments I am going through lately.
