rosy PINK bloom*





" ...When you get to the pink room do not forget to leave her a rose. I want her to know we have remembered the pink room, I want her to remember me. I dreamt of the pink room lastnight, of a time when it kept me safe, a time when it kept her safe. The pink room is hidden from view now, has been stripped bare of the lilac, the silver - someone I will never know has carelessly splashed blue paint over my memories. If you should go to the pink room, you know you will see me there. I never could leave the pink room -remember to leave me a rose. "
~ Morney Wilson 1969 poem 'The Pink Room'

this is an extremely fun and original way to go through colors.
weirdly, this post/image is totally in sync with a drawing i just did.

Its always fun to come on here and read your coloured inspired posts lol. This poem evokes such a stong sense of sadness AND delight. Its sortof confusing to dissect though. The person talks of another and then it seems to transition to the person talking about herself?

I can see the deep sorrow of having something taken from you (the pink room having been painted over) but the beauty of her memories (in that room) will still exist
