If I could wish you all the happiness in the world I would bring you this happiness
If I could ensure you woke up each day feeling fit and well I would give you full health
If I could fulfill your every wish and bring broad smiles to your face you would want for nothing
Orchid Lady, I wish I could close my eyes and find myself at your side for I need you so much.
No matter where I travel; be asleep in my dreams or lie wide awake; you are beside me
I feel as though I could hold out my hand and I would feel your fingers embrace my own
When alone, I think of you and a magical feeling opens my heart and makes it beat with love
How I long to feel the softness of your body and sheer excitement as your breath caresses my face.
Sweetheart, I have written you scores of poems yet I have missed expressing myself properly -
- somehow I haven't quite found the words of love to emblazon your heart in the way I want to
To say I love you is simply ubiquitous; yes it is commonplace, but you are my rare beautiful orchid
Should I come across many fields of beautiful flowers, none of those flowers would surpass you.
As I look out glassed windows the winter rain is running down them like an incessant waterfall
The cold southerly wind is warning me to remain inside where I feel your heavenly warmth
Yet Orchid Lady I would face any obstacle or hardship to spend my life with you in my arms
Sweetheart, you are the private Heaven I have always dreamt of and my vision of beauty.
Only a short time ago we held each other tightly before I had to tear myself away and leave -
- leaving you if only for a moment sends the sun into hiding and stills the birds from singing
It's as though Mother Nature has thrown a dark cover over you and I wander alone and lost
But, neither Mother Nature nor any other force can rob me of your beautiful photograph.
You are probably asleep now and your dreams have taken you into a mystical world of your own
How I long to be sharing your dreams and travelling into the night with its moonbeams caressing you
Orchid Lady I know you and I are together; for without you there is nothing this world could offer me
Flower of my life you live within me and I am the richer for every moment we share with a oneness.
