Purple

Lorna



Meet me over grapes in a glass

At a bistro set in a periwinkle sidewalk

Under a lavender twilight

Where heliotropes scent the air

We'll watch people pass

Put violets in our hair

Hold hands across the table

And hum Deep Purple in our hearts

          Lavender is my favourite flower
          And grapes the fav fruit
          What a lovely write
          I fell in love with purple again
          Thanks a lot dear Lorna for crafting this beautiful poetry
          The colours became jewels

            Deep purple now you're talking at the periwinkle bistro their songs lilting on the breeze, perfect. Great poem loving the colour pallett hope at some point they will be infused into a rainbow. ☺

                My Dear Lorna,

                “Purple”…
                This is a color that brings back two great memories for me…one of my great grandfather and the other of Lucille Ball stomping those 🍇…such great memories…
                Thank you for sharing your wonderful poem. 🍷🍷

                P.S.-I posted Lucy’s pic in my gallery if you want to take a peek.

                  I'll go look! Was great grandfather stomping grapes too?

                  • Laura🌻

                    Yes, he did! Unfortunately, I don’t have a picture of him stomping grapes. Farmers hired him to do that. Allegedly, he was an expert doing that. 😃
