Purple

I woke up to an embracing sun 
I had heart to heart talk with a lady in a white coat
I saw a hyacinth purple flower
The color purple made me supple
I was floating in a happy bubble 
I witnessed a mother-daughter bond that no disease can steal
I wore a headscarf that won many eyes, including my own
Then I went to bed in the watch of a full moon

If I could pick a day, this would be it
Am glad I lived to experience it
