Description She folds the orchid
behind her ear, blushing gently,
smiling to herself

What he has given
her cannot be expressed
in words, but heartbeats...

What's cool is the fact that Wen Lan is a Chinese compound name. Wen can mean warm or refined. Lan means orchid. So you can say "warm orchid" or "refined orchid". "Refined orchid sounds better.

ooo pretty I love the poem and I love the style. I like her nicely sloped arm and the way it draws you from her hands, then to the flower and then to the expression on her face.

"behind her ear, blushing gently" that has 8 syllables. Now the other one only has 6! Oh no! hahaha sorry, I didn't explain well enough. My fault.

Love the pic, but the first Haiku has 8 syllables on the second line. Just so you know.

I love that it's brown, not black ink.
I love that there's a mole on her cheek .
But most of all I love the reverence in her face.
