Birds In Paradise

In the tropics I have held temptation, By its tail not to pluck beauty pieces, Orchids in play with the coleus leaves, Ever green bottle palms and ferns in relief; Twined creepers as they toss in the moist breeze, Provoke colorful beak birds to observe, Natural life as it flowers freely; Beckons all to the "Bird Of Paradise"; If only one could paint in color hues; Could he play havoc with these wild beauties?
