About this ebook
A smile under a blazing sun
A flower abloom on a misty morn
To whom being itself is fun
A lonesome star on a cold dark night
That makes you smile even when you're lost
A friend who will give you a hand to hold
And a shoulder that thaws morose frost
Laughter that bubbles from the soul
Tears that well from the heart
Wisdom that is wrapped in innocence
Like the meaning hidden within art
'Being Purple' is all of the above and more. Here is a repertoire of strong emotions, the emotions of a woman in love, denial, ecstacy and poignant reminiscence. There are times when a simple verse is all it takes to heal an aching soul - be it of the reader or the poet, this collection is a result of many such healing moments.
