Alphabe-Thursday, Rainbow Summer School - Violet - September 9, 2010


Alphabe-Thursday, Rainbow Summer School - Violet - September 9, 2010


Such a lovely color,
Part of a rainbow's hue,
In the visible light spectrum,
Not just a mix of red and blue.

Violet flower and bee

Violet has a calming effect,
And helps us be more aware,
It is the color of humanitarians,
For those who really care.


Violet lights on the Oasis of the Seas

So many flowers are violet,
From ones that bear the name,
To exotic orchids and lilacs,
To roses of international acclaim.


Violet flowers

Violet inspires higher ideals,
This color of queens and kings,
It often relates to the fantasy world,
And escape from more mundane things.


More violet flowers

It's the color of shades of cosmetics,
That brighten the lips and the eyes,
Though, for some, it does little good,
No matter how much one applies!
