I squint my eyes and look closely
The purple field ahead invites me
Confused I slowly set my foot in
Everywhere only purple I see
The leaves brush against my legs
The gentle flowers tickle my chin
I feel happiness envelope me
Through every pore of my skin
Maybe this is what they call magic
I love this warm fuzzy feeling
A butterfly comes flapping its wings
Placing on my finger a purple ring
I fought for what I wanted
It took me to places unseen
This miracle only I could see
It only made me more keen
Purple clouds lifted my spirits
As a unicorn paved my way
I spread my wings and flew up
I had learn to fly day after day
Soon I was drenched in purple rain
I felt a sense of strength within me
My silver wings was turning to purple
A clear path ahead I could see
Following my dreams, I fly ahead
I continue to swim against the tide
Everything around merges into purple
As my smile gets wide and wide
Every single word is touched upon with a certain sensitivity to make it inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you could see that :)
DeleteI love the notion of walking through purple colour and being drenched by it- the imagery os quite exotic for me!
ReplyDeleteThank you Shalini.

DeleteIs it wrong that I was visualising 'City of Stars' when I read this?
ReplyDeleteOf course, you know my trysts with poems!
It may/may not have been slightly inspired from 'City Of Stars' :D
DeleteI have always loved poetry and this one is truly an inspiration
