A poem.

An ode, to an orchid.

An ode, this is
An ode, to Orchidoideae
In their many beautiful colors and scents
They remind me of you, of your beauty
And goodness, like the finest lindt.

An orchid is a flower
From beauty to beauty, strength to strength, it grows
You’re beautiful, from your angelic face
To the tips of your toes
You, speaking in prose
Makes me want you to in my arms doze

Orchids, in their rainbow of colors
Are like your eyes, full of knowledge aglow
Like Orchidoideae, you’re as serene as the finest Bordeaux
Like the greatest product of Colombia
Your every movement is purposeful, but mellow

An ode, this is
An ode, to you
In their your many forms of beauty
You are a person, in no need of any form of supplement

Orchidoideae
More than flowers, precious and light
In so many colors
Like you, they make my day seem bright
For you are, the most beautiful, and valuable, of flowers.
