He delivers the flowers day by day
saving money so he can buy his own

Jaws of a shark, a ferocious bite,
Always protecting with all their might.
My teddy bear holds me through the night,
In my garden, orchids and daffodils fill with light.

Premium Member Purple Phalaenopsis

Listen to poem:
purple 
is blue
is black
is mauve
a butterfly
spreading its
twin-wings to dry
to fly to disturb
the within of things
where orchids dream
on display in portrait sky

Colours

CHOCOLATE melts in my hands,
so I eat an OLIVE instead.

While smelling the pungent scent of LAVENDER
ORCHIDS soak up the sun.

Reflected off an ULTRAMARINE sea,
the evening is ROYAL PUPRPLE.

Premium Member Roses and Violets

Roses and violets make an interesting valentine bouquet
Reds and blues have long been associated with budding romance
Violets resemble orchids and make sweet-tasting jelly!

When I die..... No flowers by request..... I'm allergic to fragrance!!!!
FICTION I prefer white orchids. I'll pay for them :)

Sound of Knops

In a game of matching mates
Humble life decorate lonely tree
Wheel reach  deep  dark hole

Flurry of bliss  crisped  leaves
Orchids deplete its tears 
Fallen cloud  stood  frozen
Till sound of  opening knops

Premium Member Dreamtime: Secret Garden

alone....

in a vast meadow,
silently counting ruby explosions
of
rare, lion's tooth orchids,
hidden
under tiny royal cloaks
of
elliptical emerald leaf canopies,
so
beautiful....

I'm
briefly
blinded

The Local Plant Sale

A brawl broke out at the local plant sale
The normally meek started to flail
Their begonias and orchids around
Geraniums were ripped right out of the ground
Look at them wrong and they'll fight you without fail.

Barren Field

withered weeds
in a barren field
where once were orchids
with a hefty yield.

no longer birds 
in leafy trees.

no longer stars
for eyes to see;

nothing but the sight of dread
everything-infinitely dead.

Premium Member Calling All Butterflies

calling butterflies to the tropics
orchids, hibiscus, bromeliad, clivia,
lovely red hot cattails
raring to show off their flamboyancy
brilliant colors
fragrance usually only found in the tropics
welcome monarchs!

Premium Member Orchids

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.

the orchids dazzle
beauty stealing air and sun
some unknown painter

puffy springborn clouds
float across eternity
so high birds can't fly

wildflowers in backyard
all grow free and beautiful
'till the mower comes
Form: Haiku

Premium Member Flowers Still Have Power

joy in the garden
among peach, reds, plums and green
peace and beauty rose

cherry blossom scents
sweethearts in the blue lilies
cat frisks with daisies

in reddish sunset
orchids of many colors
recall the sixties
