Purposely Purple

Purposely Purple

 

If I had my way…

If I had my say…

 

My world would be done

In a purple medley, a song sung.

 

I’d live in a purple house,

Pouring tea from a teapot with a purple spout.

 

Purposely purple,

Every bit resourceful.

 

I’d have a purple bed,

With purple sheets to lay my head.

 

Purple roses to fill my room,

Lavender scent to drift me to snooze.

 

Purposely purple,

Ever delightful.

Purple curtains to pull back

To peer at my garden of Lilacs.

 

A place of beauty
For my husband and me.

 

Fit for a queen, I must say…

After all, it’s in my name!

 

No, I wouldn’t go that far;

He would think it bizarre.

 

I don’t want purple everywhere,

Just here and there.

 

However, he says I am his queen,

And does give purple roses to me.

 

Purposely purple,

My world is beautiful.

I seem to recall a song of old called "When the Deep Purple Falls." Sounds like the perfect tune for you.

Neat. I'll have to look it up. Thank you for reading and for your much appreciated review.

Purple is a beautiful colour and is considered the colour of royalty. It is also the colour of passion. I also am fond of this colour and wear it quite often. Delightful write Melinda.
