A. E. Housman (1859–1936). A Shropshire Lad. 1896. (*)
XXXVI. White in the moon the long road lies
WHITE in the moon the long road lies,
The moon stands blank above;
White in the moon the long road lies
That leads me from my love.
Still hangs the hedge without a gust,
Still, still the shadows stay:
My feet upon the moonlit dust
Pursue the ceaseless way.
The world is round, so travellers tell,
And straight though reach the track,
Trudge on, trudge on, ’twill all be well,
The way will guide one back.
But ere the circle homeward hies
Far, far must it remove:
White in the moon the long road lies
That leads me from my love.
Begitu kutipan puisi dari Alfred Edward Housman (A.E. Housman) seorang penyair dan cendekiawan klasik asal Inggris. Merujuk pada "Putih" yang menceritakan kehilangannya pada kekasihnya.
Dalam budaya Barat, warna putih sering dikaitkan dengan pernikahan, rumah sakit, dan malaikat. Beberapa masyarakat barat percaya, kalau warna putih menyampaikan rasa kemurnian, kebersihan, dan kedamaian(**)
Putih, warna yang secara inheren positif, dikaitkan dengan kemurnian, kesucian, kepolosan, cahaya, kebaikan, surga, keselamatan, kecemerlangan, penerangan, pengertian, kebersihan, iman, permulaan, kerohanian, kemungkinan, kerendahan hati, ketulusan, perlindungan, kelembutan, dan kesempurnaan. Di sisi negatif, putih bisa tampak dingin, dingin, dan terisolasi (***)

Putih dianggap sebagai warna yang kuat dalam feng shui. Ini adalah ilmu bangsa Cina yang merupakan sistem pengaturan lingkungan untuk menciptakan harmoni. Warna putih dalam feng shui dianggap sebagai wakil dari elemen logam.
Nabi shallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam begitu senang mengenakan busana warna putih. Terutama ketika akan beribadah. Seolah putih menetralkan hati dan pikiran dari polusi duniawi untuk kemudian ikhlas dan khusyuk di hadapan Ilahi. (****)

"Beautiful In White - Shane Filan"

Not sure if you know this
Not sure if you know this
But when we first met
I got so nervous I couldn't speak
In that very moment
I found the one and
My life had found its missing piece
So as long as I live I love you
Will have and hold you
You look so beautiful in white
And from now 'til my very last breath
This day I'll cherish
You look so beautiful in white
Tonight
What we have is timeless
My love is endless
And with this ring I
Say to the world
You're my every reason
You're all that I believe in
With all my heart I mean every word
So as long as I live I love you
Will haven and hold you
You look so beautiful in white
And from now 'til my very last breath
This day I'll cherish
You look so beautiful in white
Tonight
You look so beautiful in white, yeah yeah
Na na na na
So beautiful in white
Tonight
And if a daughter is what our future holds
I hope she has your eyes
Finds love like you and I did
Yeah, and if she falls in love, we'll let her go
I'll walk her down the aisle
She'll look so beautiful in white, yeah yeah
So beautiful in white
So as long as I live I love you
Will have and hold you
You look so beautiful in white
And from now 'til my very last breath
This day I'll cherish
You look so beautiful in white
Tonight
Na na na na
So beautiful in white
Tonight

Sehat selalu sekian dan demikian ... 😁😁🤭
