Oh, lavender!

                            --- Annie Saw

Oh, lavender!

You look like wild grass,

Growing in the fields,

Rows and rows of you dancing to the wind,

In a kaleidoscope of purple hue,

Your intense fragrance fills the air.

 

Oh, lavender!

Your spiky look

Makes you a unique beauty

That has won many hearts

With your beneficial effects

Always soothing and therapeutic.

 

Oh, lavender!

You are wonderful,

Packed with sweet aroma,

That is pleasant to the nose.

And amazing power,

That relaxes the mind.

 

Oh, lavender!

You are versatile,

A flower of tremendous uses,

From decoration to cooking to healing,

Ever so magnificent in scent and in use,

Never failing to impress.
