Orchids

Fairy bells, Pink fingers
Jewel or King of kings
In the tropics where we linger
Amoung many marvelled things

We admire life on trees and rocks
But the clay of the earth is our attire.
Take us home, in a vase by your clock
Just to let our beauty transpire

We are one of the main sources to
Nourish and concieve the flavour vanilla
If next you bake a cake or two
let our arome drift through your villa

In the Rainforest admire us edge to edge
In all our colours of delicate beauty
Or when you compete you have our pledge
To be your prize, it's just one duty

Large our family values
We can cost you quite alot
Earth will sieze to argue
With it's most enchanting natural plot
