To lavenders!

You pretty lavenders,
I heard about you eons ago,
you do not grow where I grew and wandered,
so now your seeds I sow.
Your distinct, sweet and enchanting smell,
i cannot miss- i cannot even resist,
while you waver to and fro in the breeze,
you fill my nostrils and my internals tend to freeze.
I cannot compare you to those honeysuckles,
you are tiny flowers yet you smell more divine,
and you spread your love beyond time,
that i value each little bud on your stalk.
if i dream of wonders at night,
with just a jarful of you near me-I surrender,
it surely must be heaven on earth,
to sleep in a field full of you pretty lavenders!
