Purple and Gold

–In Memory of P.K. Page

You life is a purple pearl sent from the old Kingdoms to the long West Coast. Your childhood rides on horseback with irises, bluebells and lavender all violet in purple clouds.

Your married life, a lucky star, glides from one destination to another. The exotic winds mix your nostalgia and talents, open a world of wonders.

But what do I know? How does black and white at midnight glow this garden of barbed wire and roses? What is the life in a shell? What kind of waves are calling?

Yet I do know- your poetry is the gold beyond time and space. It speaks of the color of harvest, and the weight of life where you see two divine moons, and the cure of Planet Earth.
Extracting from streams of life, refining through fire of passions, you crown us with the power and the beauty of words where our third eye sees: gold shining from the underground, roses rising from purple dreams. Under the Sky Tree, you find the way home.
