“For The Love Of An Orchid”
A bright rainbow premieres
With soft misty showers
Often when it disappears
Leaving beautiful flowers
The species is hard to say
Scientifically exclaims
When all is said and done
Such beauty it proclaims
Fancy orchids are so shiny
While others are much duller
Size from large to very tiny
Displaying a variety of color
Searching for that elusive one
Men search the trees and ground
Without hard work and danger
Unknown species can’t be found
A treasure not to hoard but share
Lovely fragrance that’s so sweet
Ladies wear them in their hair
Given as a special treat
