Violet Grape Purple Envelope
Violet Grape Purple Envelope
Violet grape, fleshy and sweet,
Packed with juice, sweetened by fall`s heat,
On every tongue, a luncheon treat,
Without any doubt or conceit;
Purple envelope, thin and square,
A supple secret seated there,
Address scribbled by well-known pen
Awaits a tale over to hand.
The grape's juice trips, a lilac stain,
A memory carved, not in vain;
The envelope opens, quite slow,
Revealing words, where feelings glow.
The taste of grape, a fading grace,
Mirrored in the envelope's space,
With purple echoes, deep and true,
A violet dream, close to blue.
Inside envelope, a letter,
Of love plea, feelings free glitter;
It speaks of time spent together,
Of pledges made to each other.
The purple fades, the grape is gone,
But memories long linger on;
The envelope , a silent friend,
Keeps company till the dead end.
Violet, purple, words entwined,
Tapestry woven for the mind;
Delicious grape, with time is stained
But sweet words of letter remain.
