Mauve thoughts fill my mind
with never ending wonder.

Mauve thoughts leave no room
and always pull me under.

Mauve thoughts are not so bad
I’m sure there are much worse.

Mauve thoughts ever in my mind
so I put them into verse!

Inspired by a student who looked up violet instead of violent. She ended up with “mauve thoughts” in her essay! Thank you Caylee Clendenen
