Drawing You In Purple

I draw purple contours to capture your shape, but lines fail to show the color of your heart. I ask for interpretations of what your heart says, just as Picasso spoke to his inspiration. I’ve seen Fall as a beginning and ending, and your presence in purple shadows past visions. Mere scratches on paper portray more than lines, and projections of you tell more than words we share.

I really enjoy poems that incorporate color. Each of us has a special meaning for each color. It's apparent how you feel about purple. Nice work! J
