lavender blue sky sparks a childhood memory of a tuneful lilt "Lavender Blue (Dilly Dilly)"  is a song from the 1948 Disney film "So Dear to My Heart."  Burl Ives sang it and it made him and the song popular.   You can hear him sing it here . shared with Yogi's SKYWATCH FRIDAY

Mea culpa- I’ve been gathering documents nonstop since last Friday, hoping to buy a home near youngest son. Then today I’m catching up with undone tasks, I’m catching up here at 9:00 p.m. Whew!  neighbor's house caught fire thankfully no one was home not fit to live in lavender- grey sky    o’er parish sunken garden   meditation site shared with Yogi's SKY WATCH FRIDAY

Looking at this beautiful sky brought to mind a song that was popular in my childhood.  I still knew all the lyrics except for the introduction.  For you young'uns, the song can be heard on You Tube here . Blue Skies by Irving Berlin I was blue, just as blue as I could be Ev'ry day was a cloudy day for me Then good luck came a-knocking at my door Skies were gray but they're not gray anymore Blue skies smilin' at me Nothin' but blue skies do I see Bluebirds singin' a song Nothin' but bluebirds all day long Never saw the sun shinin' so bright Never saw things goin' so right Noticing the days hurrying by When you're in love, my how they fly Blue days, all of them gone Nothin' but blue skies from now on linked to SKY WATCH FRIDAY hosted by Yogi
