You're right about the fact that "sometimes it's the simplest things." What a lovely poem about purple orchids making an old house glow.

Sharyn, I can almost see it from where I am. Oh how I miss Hawaii when I read your poetry and prose talking about the smells and sights there. A little homesick, great poem

Excellent observation from your drive home. Flowers can turn a sow's ear into a silk purse. Even the wild ones are beautiful.
I'm seeing purple now!
Cheers,

This is a sweet poem, I agree that orchids do make a house glow. It's a well written piece and who ever reads it should feel happier in doing so..

Comment from Barb Hensongispsaca
You are absolutely right . You can find the pieces is the best places and I have seen one that is totally covered in the most luxurious white flowers that make it seem pure. Funniest thing,,,it is abandoned. this is perfect in its simplicity

Your exceptional way of writing poetry has really painted a beautiful picture.
I was on that drive with you, and could see the house, and the lanai.
Now will go onto my lanai and look at my two orchids that are blooming, I will dream and wish,
Thanks for brightening these dreary Florida skies with this lovely poem.
