NaMoWriPo #25: The orchid I’ve somehow kept alive for 6 years now!

 

Orchid Choir

Green spidery legs

Sticking out from stick-like roots

Do not scream beauty

Curved brown branches

Change into velvety lime

Where first bulbs explode

Looking like strange alien pods

Waiting for small beings

To crawl out and greet us

One day the pods unfold

One at a time revealing

Round snow-colored petals

Who turns toward the sun

Greeting her revealing their freckles

Flecked with sharp pinks,

And tiny bits of orange

That seems to bounce

As each bud pops

They harmonize together

Giving grace to the room
