Totally Optional Prompts offers 'as a flower'...
her lavender stalk bends
under a late spring breeze
a blue-tail lizard, sans tail,
darts over her rootbound feet
flashes a shortened frame
under freshly fallen leaves
a wisp of blue
can restore tail thin as a reed
~~without replacements
she cultivates a new envy

Cleverly done - Lizard and Lavender and the use of the french word..
Lovely watercolor, and poem too. I like the intimate moment, so close the the earth, with roots, lizzards, and bright colors.
so good to have you back... i missed you so...
and i oft like your lavender find myself gazing into the lives of others wishing,, if even for a moment, we could change places... this was so lovely....
beautiful watercolor and poem Sue. :)
Gorgeous sense of serenity in this whole posting.
This is absolutely wonderful. I also agree that it's great to have you back.
I see many small lizards and gecko's running around without tail, or with other bits 'missing'. No lavenders though in my area.
So great to see you back in action! This was lovely!! :D
Pretty watercolor. Darts over rootbound feet....eeeek!! Love it!
