Delightful Discoveries - When That Deep Purple Falls... 12.16.10

When the deep purple falls
Over sleepy garden walls
And the stars begin
To flicker in the sky
Through the mist of a memory
You wander back to me
Breathing my name with a sigh.

In the still of the night
Once again I hold you tight
Though you're gone
Your love lives on when moonlight beams
And as long as my heart will beat
Lover we'll always meet
Here in my deep purple dreams
Here in my deep purple dreams.
~~Mitchell Parish

I'll remind you in case you forgot, but my mostest favoritest color is purple - rich, vivid, soul - touching, spirit inspiring purple. And I happen to know that I'm not alone in that crowd... so here is a collection of some of the most beautiful deep violet delights I could find anywhere in my handmade world. Please... join me in my deep purple dreams!
