Description
I was looking for a flower
What I found was you
And what a rare find
Among the rarest of your kind
But after only one smell
I knew you were true

Others tried to cultivate your glory
Only to watch you disappear back into the soil
Or even take flight on a brisk breeze
It was such a wind that carried you to me
A migration that seemed luck
Though I knew our visit would not last

This notion left me only wading for too long
I am sorry my feet were chill
Until I was reminded that the thrill
Of a love for a flower was quite exquisite
And decided to visit until your next journey

For days I spent sketching and writing
Gathering what data I could
Perhaps I did take more than just information
I kept your petals intact but
We did exchange our scents

Then that air rose up again
And it was time for you to detach at the stem
How great it was to be me
To study such a fine specimen
The orchid of the lop-eared variety
