Dried lavender

Stopped off at Whole Foods this morning. At the entrance were bunches of dried lavender. Sending the daughter off for year two of college. The two things matched up.


At the entrance were bunches
Of dried lavender
In brown paper,
Tied with raffia.
It seemed the perfect thing
For your new room:
You
Who waft lavender
Through the house
As you go,
Room to room,
Carrying the kitten.
You
Lavender girl.
The next time through that entrance
I will buy a bunch of dried lavender
For us,
Place it on the front table
In the living room.
A reminder.
