Another Kind of Purple

For the Purple Haiku Contest

Pat Burroughs
I understand that black is composed of all colors, and purple is a mixture of red and blue. My special cat was black, so his shiny fur contained all colors. Ebony was also the smartest, most loving pet I've ever known, with the loudest purr of all times. This haiku is about him.

Cats of red/blue mix

I've never seen another

But mine is purr-ple.
