Violets Are Blue

violets are blue

If I were to tell the color of this flower, I would say blue. I maybe color blind. In a sense, violet is a mixture of red and blue light that’s why at a first glance I see blue. But isn’t it lovely, be it blue or violet.

There are a lot of violet flowers and I have a hard time looking for the name of this kind. The one that’s closer to it is the so called Pansy or Pansy Violets. I’m not a hundred per cent sure it is, cos the petals of this are not divided unlike the ones I’ve found while searching.

    Ana, mabuti pa ang mga bata at madaling masabi ang kulay ng isang bagay. Ako rin, blue ang tingin ko diyan.

    Hehee, salamat naman. The hardest part of tagging is yung pasahan. Nahihirapan din akong magpasa ng tag. :-)

    Lumalabas talaga ang ganitong kulay ng mga bulaklak kapag palapit na ang summer dito. Kaya ang sarap mag-take ng pics. Oo, color blind talaga ako, hehee!

    Jill, now I’m confused. I thought lavender has a tint of pink and violet. Lumalabo na yata ang mga mata ko. :-)
