Now slipping in peace the hues of day Maybe this I fully know; Above the vales, the dappled fields Of bushy lanes and down to where The brimful city hoofs below. Again I feel the seed of dawn Coiled inside my roots till all Of white mist were drawn. I've twirled with the isles at night, Sweet and chaste I lie Where fresh and tinseled moonbeams sigh. .............. Andrea Dietrich's Picture Yourself As A Flower Contest *Orchid— symbol of refinement and innocence 5/8/2015

Now, this is the one flower I cannot write anything about -- out of my league! 'Where fresh and tinseled moonbeams sigh' Very nice. Enjoyed reading it.
