Sudden prurience overtook me With purple flames covering my eyes And faith shaped my twisted tongue to reckon love Attentively I watched from above the shadows Found the vision purely coursing through my veins And let my soul and intuition take the reins to run Far too abruptly did passion well Feelings pried from me in hopeless fidelity Something sacred and assuring woven choke chain Knotted in the stomach of an apprehensive waif Ageless and timeless the tempo of gloved hands I smiled at my human self, disbelieving enchantment Oh yes, there is innocence The twinkling infinite stars that fill my eyes Reminding me of just how priceless hope becomes To dream a distant dream as if the only universe And give breath to the winds of change without regret That still you are the sun upon me now, in thought and daydream A sudden purple overtakes the summer skies within your eyes For not another love could see the purity that surges but denies To want of every moment spare held tight along your shores Traveling the limits of the living, giving all my heart implores And setting free the depths of me into your knowing realms A sudden purple steams the glasses rose it overwhelms Copyright Kkh 06/15/05 |

Oh yes, there is innocence The twinkling infinite stars that fill my eyes Reminding me of just how priceless hope becomes To dream a distant dream as if the only universe And give breath to the winds of change without regret That still you are the sun upon me now, in thought and daydream ohhhhhhh yeah...this makes me sigh and swoon, well put, well found and well done!!! I'm grinning at the joy of this, and the knowledge, I'm greatful for.... Hugs to ya and good morning |

"That still you are the sun upon me now, in thought and daydream A sudden purple overtakes the summer skies within your eyes For not another love could see the purity that surges but denies To want of every moment spare held tight along your shores Traveling the limits of the living, giving all my heart implores And setting free the depths of me into your knowing realms A sudden purple steams the glasses rose it overwhelms" wow...wow...wow... loved this! |

To dream a distant dream as if the only universe And give breath to the winds of change without regret That still you are the sun upon me now, in thought and daydream Amazing words filled with gentle visions of love....Wonderful writing...*hug* |

Some time ago I wrote of purple, and when you take the emotion of the color into account, anything can happen... Like this poem. Purple is an on-going, ever-giving, wealth of words color, Kathleen... I would like to see some more purple from you in the future. |
