Putting My Feet in the Dirt Prompt#2 Lavender Lullabies
( As a sidenote- my Cat Wolfgang is buried under a bed of Lavender- not the one in the photo though. )

His bones are sleeping
under a bed of lavender in my garden
and every morning the bees sing to him
and every night
the birds call out sleep tight to him
and when it rains or it snows and
his bed of lavender turns cold
I open the door and call for him to come in
but he is asleep and he doesn’t wake up.
One day, I think he will.
