Purple!

Purple is the color of flowers that bloom.
Purple is the color that always gets you in the mood.
Purple is the color of grapes.
Purple can also be the color of roller skates.
Light purple is so, so sweet.
Like a candy bar I'd like to eat.
Dark purple is so rich.
Like something bitter in a dish.
Purple can be very soothing.
To me it's very moving.
What a mix of blue and red.
Purple blankets on my bed.
Purple's such a pretty sight.
Like the sunset late at night.
