Purple ~ In Celebration National Poetry Month


the drapes are drawn
the drama defined
the play of light and shadow
staged be the folds
the casting complete.

Exciting and dramatic...and bold passionate purple!

RoseMarie-
within the purple darkened folds and shadows of dark and light truth is told, known, drama is felt and understood and desired, necessary for life to have depth beyond freedom. There is no word for this place - yet it exists and you and I both know this to be so.
Love to you
Gail
peace.....

Theanne, Creating the image was indeed, "exciting and dramatic..." yes, wrapped within the folds of "passionate purple." :-)

Gail, and within each place, our choices cast, our lessons, our liberation...
