A little bit of grace
and flair at the same time
as I stomp off into the proverbial night
Purple tulips
are a pick-me-up
'cause, sometimes, life gets you down
But, I can pretend
I am wearing purple tulips
and sport my imaginary crown

    Purple tulips on my boots would bring some zing to my ordinary life, Do you suppose I could get them custom made? A wonderful poem. Thanks for sharing this wonderful thought. :)
