Purple Violet
That purple violet
Was Mum’s favourite flower.
She watered it every day,
Tried to make it big and tall.
That purple violet
Was a twinkling star
Shining, scintillating and rare
Nobody wanted to hurt it.
That purple violet
It bloomed gloriously in Spring
Like Mum’s gentle smile.
When she held me in her arms and sang.
However,
Now I cannot listen to her angelic song
Or see her mild face, forever
Because …
The purple violet has gone.
