purple haze fades
in dawns soft light;
reveals fields of lavender
seen far and wide
embalmed all the air,
calming mind
with each breath

*Note: I’ve chosen for you a video of the lavender fields of Provence with a instrumental.
The smell of lavender wafting in a summer breeze, the gentle swaying of hillside olive groves, empty sun-swept corridors between picturesque stone buildings—Provence is a region full of sensory romance, rewarding travelers with its breathtaking vistas, mouthwatering cuisine, and small-town tranquility. The Romans once dominated this area, and many of the towns serve as visual historical accounts of France’s southwestern region, with remnants of Roman, Byzantine, medieval, and Renaissance structures incorporated into the modern construction of the upscale (but still quaint) towns. When you’ve had your fill of idyllic lanes in famous Aix-en-Provence and enjoyed St. Tropez’s legendary beaches, head for one of these smaller, lesser-known towns.
🌎✌🏻💙 Take care, be safe.

Your poem reminds of my trip to some lavender fields and the sweet, perfumy double scoop of lavender ice cream I enjoyed there. 🙂
