Comment from Dorothy Farrell
Hello Janet, I rarely give a 6 for these short forms but this is so well done. A clever thought and play on words with aromatherapy. You must feel pleased with yourself - you should. I would like to have thought of that. Good Luck in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy xx

Comment from closetpoetjester
Oooh you are a clever one. I loved the poetic scent of this one in spite of lavender no longer being my favourite essential oil haha (long story but it involved way too much essential oil in the oil burner which permeated every part of my sense of smell to a point I cannot handle the smell of lavender ever again LOL - instead of one or two drops of oil, I filled the whole thing up with oil OMG OMG)
With that said, if I cast my mind back to a time beFORE this incident I can identify with the calm relaxing properties of the lavender aROMEa..um, I think.
Anyway, a great little poem and I must award you a sixer mate.
Cheers P

Comment from Catmusings
Love this creative haiku. So clever with that play on words. Well done! How I would like to be romping in those lavender fields in Italy. Looks wonderful!

Comment from evesayshi
In my opinion, a lovely write, especially in the clever and charming choice of words that literally sing the verse in lyric movement - compliance with the prompt in syllable count may be questionable, but I wish you the best of luck in the contest, regardless...

Comment from flylikeaneagle
Love your poem, lavender and its scent and it's an
a roma therapy. Yes, helps me sleep. It's a great fragrance
and pretty flower. Some use lavender in tea or cupcakes.
You nailed the syllables and great awareness. flylikeaneagle

Comment from ExperiencingLiphe
I love lavender. My husband has some lavender lotion he puts on every night before we go to bed. I love laying on his chest smelling it. It's the perfect way to end any night.

I put lavender on my pillow - never thought of putting it on my husband. It does sound like a perfect way to end any night. :)

Comment from LIJ Red
Ouch. That was my expected wince at the pun. Never saw any lavender in Puglia Province, just lotsa poppies and wine grapes...I am not the master judge of Haiku...this looks fine to me...
