What we were
doesn’t matter anymore.
I look at photos
of the sweet lavender
fields
in Provence, France
where we used to go to
whenever we were feeling
adventurous.
Nostalgia creeps up on me
(yet again)
painting a vision of a whole
mass of purple
gently swaying
as if all in
sync
with the melodious
whistles of the wind
under the massive scope of
celestial skies.
It is then that I realise
that it never
mattered,
never made a
difference,
for together we were as purple as
the lavender
until you decided your vibrant
red
didn’t mix well with
my dull shade of
blue.
THIS IS NOT AN ORDINARY POEM.
Yup, that’s right, I decided to participate in No Love For Fatties’ Paint Chip Poetry challenge again.
This week’s paint chip colours were:
Sweet lavender, celestial skies, melodious

I did have a great time doing it. Although I wrote all my poems in September and then organized it all into 5 weeks of posts. So next weekend is the last one. It was really fun! I might do it again in the new year? Possibly as an AtoZ challenge, but I’m not sure yet.
