Beautiful composition!!! I didn't know the song but Laine and Di will help me a little I guess! :D

I used to sing "Lavender's Blue" to my children when they were babies. I used to know like 15 or so verses. It was their favorite lullaby.

Lovely lavender color, Gar. This is beautiful.

Quite lovely GW.

Laine, you're absolutely right, so I changed the caption to Lavender Orchid, referring to the color. I'd forgotten there is a plant called Lavender!

Now please continue -- what are the other verses? LOL

Lavender's blue, dilly dilly, lavender's green,
When I am king, dilly, dilly, you shall be queen.
Who told you so, dilly, dilly, who told you so?
'Twas my own heart, dilly, dilly, that told me so

I wont give you the full 30 odd verses Gary :>)
BTW...did you know this was Burl Ives first hit song & I think it came from the 17th Century too.....
in the meantime, I do know this is not lavender but a very beautiful orchid
