Purple Dreams

I dream of a lavender sea,

Flooding the halls

Acting as amaranth aristocrats over the other three,

Each drop answering their calls.

 

I dream of violet flags

Dancing in the frosty wind

Guiding those lost rags,

All so undisciplined.

 

I dream of mulberry scars

Some outside, some in.

While I hide with the stars,

Wine-like tears flow down my chin.

 

I dream of an orchid love

Seeming so many worlds apart,

Yet as vibrant as a foxglove

And close in my heart.
