Tincture Tuesday: Purple





 
PURPLE

Grape jelly, purple potatoes, mix of red and blue
Carroll’s Cheshire Cat, grape Bubble Yum to chew
Amethyst, color of passion, starfish on a wave
Tropical sunset, eggplant, grape Jolly Ranchers we crave
Irises, violets, and lilacs, hydrangeas and sweet peas
Pansies, asters, dahlias, blueberry herbal teas
The Color Purple with Oprah, lavender candles at night
O’Keeffe’s painting—Purple Petunias, purple neon light
Prince’s song—“Purple Rain,” freshly ripened plum
Purple Indian Corn, cocktail with grape juice and rum
Purple—a powerful color, in nature not commonly found
But stout-hearted, easy to love, like magic all around
