Purple Rain

I walked on a royal carpet today From the steps on my backdoor Clear through all the potted plants All brimming with purple bells A long walk, all the way To the back of the nursery A royal carpet of purple and lavender bells Purple bells raining from the blue sky above Purple bells blown all over creation by the south wind. The Jacaranda is in bloom From the bustop Where I drop off my grandson I can see the purple cloud Swaying in the breeze Silhouetted against the blue sky Raining on my house In the street On my nursery Creating a royal carpet The purple rain. 5/6/14 Alton Texas
