Lilac
White and purple Flieder
invite you in
Pull up a chair
And join the conversation
The warm glow
of a Fazzoletto lamp
Illuminating
yellow and orange tulips
Stacks of plates and bowls
beckoning
to be filled with ambrosia
Bone china cups
sitting on the shelf,
dreaming of being filled with
fragrant teas from the Orient
A girl
in a flowerprint summer dress
standing on tiptoe,
peaking over a fence
Getting lost in a book
or ready to leave, and
endless possibilities
in between
