Shades of purple
soothe my restless roving mind
as I walk through fields
of fragrant sweet lavender
love and kindness with each step.

No, I haven’t recieved a copy yet. Starting to think it’s lost in the mail. Have you heard about mystic screen? I was hoping to edit before publishing.
I’ll try and find the opening 😊
I’ll look for it on your site. Let me know if you are posting it elsewhere.
