Wild Orchid.

Wild Orchid:

So many to find and mesmerize,
yet here are some that will
not wander far from my mind.
"Waiomao Plum", such a special one.

Of vibrant reds,
a Valentine's bloomer.
so very important as
I may share it with you.

Another is a "Koolau Sunset"
of frilly red,
reminds me of the many warm
sunsets that we have together shared.

We must also remember the
"Sheer Delight", a
beautiful red bloomer
that reminds me of our passion.

"Apricosa" with it's orange glaze
must never be missed,
like the smile that
you always put on my face.

But there is only one in
this whole garden for me
and that one is you;
my sweet wild orchid.

I only have eyes for thee.
