Lavender Fields
High summer in hills and mountain valleys Sunny Gordes, Sault, Sederon France’s fragrant blue gold waves like wheat on the wind blushes mauve to deep violet softens Romanesque Senanque Abbey its haunting scent carried in essential oils soaps, bouquets, sachets flavours ice cream, honey, nougat. Healing blossoms Lavandula angustifolia propagate in belle Provence ancient home to Roman generals Now tourists flock to bring this elixir home as cicadas chant in chorus.
