Monday Memories: Wild Violet

She returns annually to announce the arrival of spring

Heart-shaped flowers will bring vivid beauty that sings

 

She loves the cool and damp spring air

Shaded from the sunlight brings no cares

 

She possesses a cute and dainty look

Green fields invite a walk along a brook

 

She adores the color purple, dark is best

Sadly, others see her beauty as a pest

 

She loves to pause in gardens for relaxation

Butterflies seek her as a beautiful attraction

 

She experienced vigorous growth in her younger days

Ancient Greeks consider her a symbol of love that stays

 

She meanders now as a traveler seeking only fun

Looking out at a calm creek called Wild Violet Run

 

There really is a small stream called Wild Violet Run near Pickerington, Ohio in Violet Township, which is located in northwestern Fairfield County.
