Orchid Lady, while you are out shopping in the city I sit here thinking about you
Perhaps one day during a quiet moment I will open my heart and tell you.......
....of the way you have brought happiness to my life and how I love you
The look in your eyes tells me of the devotion you reserve for my well-being.
You are as gentle as air is to a fallen feather as it cushions its passage to the ground
The way you quietly talk to me touches my ears like a delicate zephyr of the lightest breeze
I feel the humility in you as you show concern for those around you who often suffer in silence
The smallest of pleasures brings a smile to your face that seems to brighten the room about you.
Should we walk together through green fields or make our way through woods or forests.......
....as we stroll through many changing landscapes you show an avid interest in flora or fauna
I have no doubt if you were to touch a drooping flower it would gather new strength and live again
The deafening silence of the woodland is broken by the chattering of birds as they view our progress.
Should you be called away at night I sit here and watch night shadows dancing from the fire's glow
You leave a strength with me that breaks my lonely hours without you; calming me through this loneliness
If the truth be known I miss you - I can't put it any other way, sweetheart I simply sit alone and miss you
Then a smile slowly makes its way across my face as I know it won't be too long before you are home again.
