  9. My favourite colour. I’m not partial to its name; purple, indigo, violet, whatever. The final colour of the rainbow. My watch is purple.

  10. and everything around her was violet
    the color of his laugh, the fading shadows in the setting sun, the deepest blue in her eyes. and everyone felt effervescent and infinite and loved
    and the night washed over them
    and she smiled.

  11. Violet is a name I always liked. Mysterious, deep.
    I wrote a story and the girl’s name was Violet.
    She didn’t have dark hair though, which is how most girls named Violet are portrayed.
    She was an…anomaly? Is that the right word?
    I never finished the story though.
    I never seem to be able to finish stories because I never feel like I am doing the characters justice. Maybe something’s wrong with that. Or maybe I like things to remain unfinished. Let the stories finish themselves…

  12. my mother smiles at me as i exit the confines of the department store dressing room. i’m all wonky half-smiles, staring mostly at the floor. i had never taken pride in my appearance, and the violet coloured frock looked absolutely hideous on the hanger; though, the predominantly female side of me sort of fancied it. it cascades downward to cover my knees, and my arms are left bare; i note the chill of the air conditioning

  13. violet eyes
    are my demise
    when it comes to seeing you
    i swear i’ve never seen some the same
    the eyes they lie
    they decieve you
    violet flowers
    are wilting now
    the sugar bowl turned into bread
    the fire place is surely empty
    and surely empty is your head

  14. Violet is a dream world, filled with peace and stability. It requires no thought, nor does it require any effort to comprehend. It is filled with tranquility, and violet is a colour that represents the ending of all. IT ends the rainbow like an neat tide washing away a world. Unlike any other. It is reverie.

  15. Petals caressed by a breeze
    soft
    gentle
    sitting on the grass
    green
    quietly sitting there
    shadowed by the higher
    granduer
    of others
    but content
    in its colour
    for no one will forget it’s name
    when it is the same
    as it’s colour.

  16. violet is one of my favorite colors it is the colors of flowers and the color of affection to me. It is also the name of a flower. I like how it can be the name of two things. A lot of people call it purple but is violet really a different color than purple? hmmm…

  18. I’d like to lie in a field of violets
    so that the roots may
    twist and twine
    around my body until
    there is nothing left but
    a sea of tiny wishes
    perfumed with my sighs

  19. it is such a beautiful color i love it because it is the color of lilacs and lavender although lavender is also a color. if the world were more violet we might see less violence and connect through violet eyes, ears, nose, and mouth who hum simple and pristine hymns among the people in our glorious world

  20. Was there ever a violet more beautiful than this? I will keep it myself. He is constituted to only have concerns of a solemn nature. I invisibly suffer but it is more digestible than being the recipient of his laughter and words like callow. I am too frail in the morning.

  21. purple, amazing, flowers. spring time, jessica’s room color. bright, happy, too happy. i have to do a double-take when i look at this word because sometimes i confuse it with “violent”.

  22. in 5th grade, we were shown a video in chorus of people dancing interpretively while shouting out colors of the rainbow. they said violet like “VI-O-LET” and it was followed by “BAH-LOO,” so whenever i see the word “violet,” that’s what comes to mind.

  23. The color violet is like a flower. It’s pretty, and simple. It’s something that can remind you of a food, or a time of day, or maybe even a song. Or emaybe evern a time in your life..when you wore a violet sweater on the first kiss you had with your lover. What more could you think.m

  24. Her eyes looked violet sometimes. Only when the right light hit them- the light of the setting sun, but still, he’d never seen anything so beautiful.

    That was why she held violets on their wedding day.

  25. Gwen thumbed the silky fabric of the shirt, admiring its texture and pleasingly violet colouring. She didn’t wear purple much. They always brought her darker, duller pant suits, t-shirts, and jeans. It was disappointing, to say the least, but if she was going to rebel over something, she would rather it be something substantial. Her favourite pink polka-dotted dress shirt hidden away in the back was just enough to tide her over for now.

  26. purple. flower. the bratty girl off Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. and Wilie Wonka. Poetry. Roses are red, violets are blue.

  27. Her name was Violet. She was tall, brunette and had a tight grip on my heart. In her belly was Rose, the life we created together. We were tied forever in that little bump of joy.

  28. purple house in a garden of flowers, i love it .. my favorite color (: violet, is it the same as purple? i don’t know the difference, but i like em both.. love em ♥

    jessica
  29. Be it a name or a flower, it is still a beautiful word. It is also a colour that has grown in preference in the past years. Violets are wonderful

  30. Violet is my mother’s name. She is a kind old woman who lives in the valley. She loves nature and she spends as much time outside as possible. She cries at night for the daughter she lost. That is okay. She’ll live on because my name is Violet also. Hopefully we do not meet the same fate.

  31. roses are red violets are blue…
    but are they really blue? shouldnt they be violet? is that a joke?
    violets are so many things..
    its the name of a flower, the name of a color, the color of my sisters prom dress that she looked beautiful in.

  33. again with the color violet. Which is purple?! but then why do they always say: Roses are Red, Violets are blue? Are violet’s blue or purple? Is violet a shade of Blue or purple? which color is more dominant? I feel confused. Hand me a color wheel please.

  34. Violet is the color of my grandchildren’s room. It is warm an dinviting and I love to put it with yellow. Violet is pansies smiling faces and the color right before the darkness comes. Violet is the last color of the rainbow. Violet is a precious spring flower that leads the excitment of more flowers to come.

  35. “bogdan is no shrinking violet,” kathleen sneered angrily,”anyone who knows him knows that. why would he tell them we have the cure?”

  36. purple. the little flowers by the stream. the deepness of the sunset floating in the reflections on a calm pond.
    violets in the morning in the moss with fog swirling around.
    little toads hopping around the violets

  37. Her eyes were violet — that’s what everyone said. No one ever said that about anyone else. Photographs couldn’t quote capture the color completely, but anyone who ever saw her in person swore that her eyes were stunningly violet! Elizabeth Taylor of the violet eyes!

  38. Purple.
    Goddammit.
    You don’t bleed purple, and your blood isn’t bluer than mine, once it hits the air.
    But you keep saying you’re royalty of a sort.
    Spotted inside, or something.
    Violet.
    Just makes me want to rip out your insides, to inspect them.
    Blue-blooded bastard.
    Brother.

  39. As Jensen turned his head toward the disintegrating door the room was filled with an eerie violet light that permeated everything and all sound ceased. In fact, Jensen even thought he could see through things on account of the light. That was the last thought he had until everything went blank.

  40. a young girl with a heart solid as stone reaches for future with her past holding her
