Prince's LotusFlow3r...A short story.

Prince’s LotusFlow3r… A short story.

Deep in a forest, nestled between sacred terra and tinted purple sky is a park. “77 Beverly Park.” This secured domain is much harder to find than, “$,” and much stronger than, “The Wall of Berlin.” For in this park is a secret sound.
Nested between a serene pond that sings, Love Like Jazz,” ever so quietly and a tapering willow is the origin of a lost echo.
A whisper is calling…”From the Lotus,” penetrating her park of protection, and climbing within the wind that travels everywhere.
Many a “Dreamer,” have pursued her. They believe that they can capture her near silent voice within her open petals and fragile fragrance like an eternal elixir to, “Feel Good, Feel Better, Feel Wonderful.”
As the story has been told, when the Park’s ground senses nearing trespassers, a group of god’s known as the, “Colonized Mind,” unite like a tympanic ring in the sky and produce a soul chilling, “BOOM!” The sound is so perfect that the intruders die of an instant heart attack. The sacred ground soon thereafter devours them and another patch of “Crimson&Clovers,” appear where the trespassers have vanished.
Without this first echo, the valley’s of the world would serve no purpose. Her hallow wave’s reach the farthest corners of anywhere and anywhen. She whisper’s, “4Ever,” and her echo returns safe and sound…”Back 2 the Lotus.~T cool

Thanx PurpleRain747...I have done this with most of Prince's albums and they posted well over a year ago...

It's a fun writing exercise 4 me. I've only done this with Prince albums. Some have come out better than others. I would have liked to have added "Elixir," and "MPLSOUND," although the story would have had to have been dialogue.

Have fun...I can't wait to read one of yours. cool

Oh, well, that's interesting, Tamera.
Now's the unofficial sequel:

The morning after, the gods known as the Colonized Mind, which had spawned the rainbow children not so long before, started to feel a dark thrill in their supernatural bodies.
All of a sudden, the sky was purple and a heavy cloud shaped in the form of a guitar overwhelmed their conscience.
The echo began to change, and from smooth and slow it turned into a more percussive rhythm, until it became a funky groove. Slowly the rain began to fall and the gods started to scream and after 17 days they vanished. The banished ones returned from the Afterworld wearing a purple trench coat and a Rude Boy pin on the jacket. Their eyes brown and sharp, and thier hair curly.
The rainbow children stared at them and suddenly they realized that they hadn't got better with time, and that through the Lotus, they should go back to the Purple Rain.
The now funk-echo changed the name of the park from 77 Beverly Park back to its former name, Paisley Park, 'cause she knew that back in the day, the Parade was always enjoyable, and what she was witnessing now was only a sign o' the times.

I am going to take the opportunity to say something to those that read the various comments posted here.

Prince has inspired me for many years in many ways. Whether it has been a poem...a craft of some kind, I have enjoyed my personal self expression due to loving Prince.

I can say that the "Crazy," comments really bother me, however they really don't. What these comments do do to me is inspire me to say this: One, I'd much rather be closer to crazy than boring on the emotional richter scale...And Two: If being Crazy in Love with Prince is what I am...I'm sure as hell not Stupid! cool
