PURPLE EVER
I am never at the end of this journey
Merely a passer by in your time surely
Purple ever, the colour of snow and sky
One has only to nod and never to sigh
Shirring sounds echo, mimicking helicopters
Shhh, shhhh music is never to loud for ears
Inverted into exactly one million cells airs
Beautiful melodies for two-feet tapping
Loud is omitted from every word art mapping
Energy abounds and seasons flow in symmetry

    I like the idea of a world of purple! I was hoping someone would write a poem about an impossible place like this.

    You have used poetic imagination in a unique way. Your poem reminded me of two people I know whose favorite color is purple and would buy anything in that color.
