lavender's blue

"Lavender blue and Rosemary green,
When I am king you shall be queen;
Call up my maids at four o'clock,
Some to the wheel and some to the rock;
Some to make hay and some to shear corn,
And you and I will keep the bed warm."

I found more than one version of this nursery rhyme/children's song on Wikipedia and this is my favourite.

Just one problem as far as I am concerned: lavender's purple!

Haha, too true Hazel, not seen this version of the rhyme before. Like the framing too

[Casablanca]

That's a new version on me too, but I have to say I have always had the same response - lavender is purple!!

I haven't seen this version before either and I've never understood the idea of blue lavender. Lovely image.
