Orchids
Graceful,gentle
sensitive to touch
Black ones,yellow ones
all are lovely as such
of those that are compared
they are as dainty as the air
not wild,not bold just classic
and sweet,oh how I would like to meet
these flowers that are sweet and graceful
like a willow tree
in the springtime field
