The unforgettable beauty of lavender Occurs in both the earth As well as part of the many changing Shades of the daily heavens on high. Is quickly there, and then is gone. Light violet, lavender, How unique is its special glow, Colored in nature in light lilac, Amethyst, and airy, purple indigo. From a poem by Gil Saenz
