Violet Garden
Violet softness blushes the cheeks of the gently swaying purple vinca, and murmurs sweetly of
Violet cloud filled breezes caressing their green leaves, like
Violet lips that whisper the bitter longing flavor of deep blue love songs when snow arrives.
Violet ice tinged coleus shiver beneath the white covering of blinding cold as
Violet perfumed roses reserve their fragrant blooms under the silvery veil of winter.
(purple, murmurs, caressing, green, flavor, blue, white, blinding, fragrant, silvery)
I walk through the garden in early Spring.
The purple, fragrant earth murmurs with
each step of my blue and white shoes
caressing their moistened soles.
Green leaves and silvery
sun flavor the scene
in blinding light,
that paints the
blossoms
mauve.
