I’ve always felt
my favorite color is purple.
And maybe it truly is;
But, still…
When I look around my life –
in my wardrobe, at my environment and surroundings,
my adornments and accessories…
I see more greens and aquas,
grays and blues
and random other pieces
of Earth’s rainbow.
Not as much purple
as there maybe should be
if it is indeed my favorite color.
Or, maybe it’s just that
my subconscious tastes
aren’t very biased
and I like being surrounded by
various shades and colors;
Yet the one that most soothes my senses,
resonates within my consciousness,
captivates my awareness,
is purple
and all its endless hues.
