Orchids If You Please
True highbrows can't hear commoner's pleas
Stuck sitting on their swanky settees
Status fades as affluence recedes
I'd prefer pink orchids if you please
Elitists applaud wealthy reprise
Fake posers deceive masses with ease
Think that they deserve all that they seize
So send purple orchids if you please
Fools imagine themselves on marquees
Those who would toss it all to the breeze
Who can't

Orchid New Year - Anacreontic couplets
Orchid blooms in soothing light,
New year's hope shining so bright.
Elegant petals unfold,
As hopes and dreams take strong hold.
Their fragrance, gentle perfume,
Bringing joy as the year blooms.
In this new year start we find,
Beauty and growth intertwined.
A year of promise and cheer,
Orchids swish, "Happy New Year!"

Orchids Flowers
Shooting stars in various colors
We, viewers and spectators adore
Gliding at gardens and forests wild
Passersby touch or pick-- all beguiled.
Bunches in lobe petals bloom so bright
Like fairries' earrings worn day and night
I’m madly in love with each hue of these flowers
I’ll get them all for you my love and offer.

Karma Orchids
The purple orchid seemed flawed
At first glance, twisting yet not ugly
Like an artist who ruins a canvas
In distracted strokes of purple
In a quest to reach out to a sunset
Appearing unworthy of a second glance
Bearing the brunt of his twisted strokes
Till the restless night is broken by the dawn
Producing the most spectacular bloom
Complex and yet mysterious

Violet Orchids
Violet Orchids
Royalty with the epitome of beauty
Inspired
Enchanted by mysticism
A nice morning for a stroll
Surrounded by heavenly fragrant orchids
Sipping tea mid afternoon
Watching the sunset
Vibrant colors
Soft violet hues tinted throughout the horizon
A perfect picture view frozen in time
Night arrives a balmy breeze
Moonlight beams and a magical moment
Dancing in the moonlight with my exquisite orchid
An everlasting love awaits

Orchids
Orchids,
your bright colors
make up for the fact that
your beautiful blooms have no scent,
yet with heaven you share.
Nurtured by air
Orchids.
