Purple

This was a poem written in five minutes that I felt like writing. It's horrible, I know, just meant for amusement purposes.

 

I once saw a very dark shade of purple,

As purple as a shade of purple could ever have been.

It was awe-inspiring, so much that it wanted me to describe it as the purple of a grape,

Or better yet, the purple of a plum.

I stared at the purple for roughly seventeen minutes,

Enough to make my swirling mind settle,

On one purple-based idea.

 

The idea came and went,

But it left an imprint on my mind.

I was to write a poem based on the colour purple,

A rhyming poem, to be precise, with the word purple

At the very end of each line.

 

But lo and behold, I ended up writing this horrific poem,

Which was to end up on a site.

But yet, the purple made this poem so much better.

And thus, this disproportionate poem ends.

 

Oh, yeah.

 

Purple.

This was actually quite amusing and kept me reading, so right there you have a win! I like the distracted feel of this and the rambling, trying to get something amazing... We've all been through that process. We have an awesome idea, but actually putting it to words is the most difficult thing ever. I wrote a poem in 5 minutes, "5 Minute Messy-piece" that is kinda like this. Very disconnected yet humorous at the same time. So I loved it! Keep writing :]

Oh yeah, did you know nothing rhymes with purple?
:p

I love the random humor you use about the color, and how you make it formal yet funny. Awesome job, Spader xD (This is Loor from HI lawl) Anyways, it is SO not horrible. If you dare say that again I'll get out the M.S.D.D.I and turn it on so you will be pinned to a wall by sporks until you agree that it's awesome.

'Nuff said

XD

Keep on writing!

This was a fun, and interesting piece. What can you do with the word purple...LOL ? I quess it's a color that stands on it's own.

Purple. It just seemed fitting to start my comment off that way, lol. It's a bit rambling but the humor of the poem more than makes up for that. I don't need to point out any flaws, it is quite obvious that you were just having fun and that is what matters here.

It could actually be a good poem if it were just vamped up a bit. Ex: The word purple is over used, despite it being the main focus. There are always several ways you can write the same word. It's quite a comical poem though :P
