I saw this cottage
And she invited me
“Come around again
Take another look
Can you just imagine
How I would look
With jasmine growing along the steps
Pennyroyals filling the cracks between the path
Trumpet vines cascading over
Lavender and sage growing almost wild beside lantana bushes lining my sides
A few rocking chairs scattered here and there
Windchimes playing melodies
Every kind of mint in handpainted pots
Just waiting for a glass of tea
Wouldn’t I be a lovely place
For you to sit and rest
Read a book and write your own
Kick off your boots and dance
Barefoot on the floor
Hang some chiffon and lace in the windows
Enough to keep the out shadows but leave the light
We could have so much fun
If only I wasn’t so far away
For you to invite
The rest of those that matter so much to come and gather
At the turquoise cottage
That invites “
