Notes About The Poem

Ghost Orchid

Her beauty blooms the shadows – haunting
           Svelte demure, with fragile veil
        Unseen to those who would possess
Just one lover – nimbus, roars with flashing eyes
     Fervent kisses falling - blushing alabaster
          Druid torrents, sating every curve

Note: The ghost orchid (pale white) is one of the rarest
