The poems in this chapbook are based on the names of paint colours. Award-winning writer April Bulmer collected samples from local hardware stores and used the names as titles for her poems. As she wrote, a short narrative developed: a story of Canadian soulmates who have reincarnated. The female narrator recalls earlier lives in other countries. Whether Chinese, Black, Indigenous or White the couple is always spiritually inclined. In this incarnation, they marry and heal each other. The woman loves her husband, a warlock and surgeon who soothes her nervous condition. He is a medicine man who salves her soul. The woman offers him her artistic gifts. Their love is deeply rooted in the mystical history of this planet. It is nuanced by the colours April studied while writing these unique poems.
