Gratitude: 281

{Post: 281/365}

Today I am grateful for:

the colour purple

Supercalifragilisticexpialadocious!

{Post: 118/365}

rays of light
shining in a prism
creates beautiful colours
and purple writes
supercali on the wall
blue, not to be outdone
adds fragilistic
green is confused
but pretending not to be adds
expi to the list
and yellow in the middle
continues with ala
orange adds docious
and red just adds an exclamation point
still confused for a moment
the colours
all speaking at once
suddenly understand
separately we make no sense
but together
we make something
supercalifragilisticexpialadocious!

purple

is a woman

of strength

and dignity

respectful

and kind

a queen

in her own life

responsible

and in control

of her own happiness

The Story of Two Lilac Trees

{Post: 14/365}

the first tree

was purchased

from a mail order catalogue

it was special

and cost twenty dollars

it was planted and grew for a year in my yard

then

transplanted to my mom's yard

when I moved home

it was years away from blooming

but there was hope...

and then...

a younger brother

and a lawn mower mishap

my lilac tree was mulched!

the second tree

was purchased

from the same catalogue

another chance

and hope renewed

it was planted in the front yard

and surrounded with it's own little white fence

but alas...

another younger brother (hubby's this time)

and a truck parked on the very spot

above the snow

and after the spring thaw...

poor lilac baby was dead!

AGAIN!

My lesson?

DON'T purchase fancy lilac trees

and plant them anywhere 

that little brother's travel!!

(just kidding guys)

:) TRUE STORIES.

Tattoo I Get NEXT Hopefully...

{Post 169/365}

I love this phoenix tattoo and I want it in the colours in the pic.

I love the purples and oranges.

It symbolizes a new beginning inside myself that came about when I met my muse. 

He helped me see some things properly and heal some parts of me that had long been broken.

I want this on my back and it's going to be bigger than any I've had as of yet,

therefore it will also be more expensive...

so I am saving NOW and hopefully

will get it for my birthday! :)

Lilacs

{Post 63/365: Original Post: KD Bissonette on Triond}

I wish I were purple
Like lilacs in bloom
And I dream of dancing in the rain
I am love and compassion
I used to be afraid to share
But now I am trying to be open
I seem to have low days sometimes
But I'm really trying to be positive

Purple IS...Calm Solitude

{Post 16/365: Original Post: HubPages}

Calm Solitude

This is the colour purple:

crocuses in the spring

the sweet smell of lilac wafting on the breeze

power

purple tulips

the colour of a queen

clover in the grass

brilliant purple fireworks in the sky

one part of the colourful rainbow after the rain

vibrant reflections of the depth of my soul

purple is mystery and magic

purple is the feeling of calm and solitude
