I WALK IN DREAMS OF LAVENDER

I walk…. in dreams of lavender
Picnic basket in my hand
Remember? I placed the blanket down
Just the way we planned.

With bouquets of purple flowers
Fruits alight on plates of gold
Eagerly, I sat awaiting you
And what the future holds.

Out of shadow into sunlight
On your white horse, running fast
“I’m here” I waved excitedly 
As you rode swiftly past.

I poured my wine, alone I dined
Purple flowers in their vase
Walking there in dreams of lavender
Out of sync with time and space.
