Childhood Quote by April S. Rolfe

“Purple: my favourite colour, why? It was the colour of the flowers on my Nanna's dishes and I loved her tea cake; because violet's smell like love, because it looks like velvet... because... bruises. It is the dark that grows into midnight and the dawn that rises into warmth.” quote by April S. Rolfe
