Purple
All my thoughts of you are purple.
You will ever be inky,
Regal,
The last colour of the rainbow.

Lush berry stain
And a famous rain.

Pools, purpled with the heart of the moon
through thunderclouds,
Viscous and inviting.

Amethyst lover.
A rose dappled with dew.
As if it wept
Like my bruised and aching heart.
"Don't wait for Gandalf to show up on your doorstep to have an adventure.
Be Gandalf and do it for yourself."

I listened
to the stars in spring hesitantly
then confidently
when I realised
that its melding tones  were imbued no longer
by hues of grey.

Memory fades
and the aches that once seared so familiar
are now but the entrails
of a year that has sailed steadily away.
