Purple ice — Flames of yellow sunshine freezing. Bittersweet, From golden scepter’d throne, Red and orange leaping. Purple ice — Snake eyes rolling, impassioned fire. King’s knife twists In the ominous woods — Autumnal bed of d’sire. Purple ice — Eruption of molten lava. Melting Of immortality, Poppy-rusting of leaves. Purple ice — Once, look’d at emerald Eyes. Twice. Never again. Jealous Queen preens against oak cold. 8/10/2021

She looks pretty icy to me "Queen preens against oak cold." I think I can live a long time without meeting her.

The Prince may have his purple rain, but the queen has her purple ice. No idea what it all means, but enjoyed your colorful poem.
