Orchid for my beloved

Sometimes pretty often I brood on the thought

“O! What can I present you?”

Then with a flash it comes to my mind

What if I give you the most beautiful orchid

Colored with each drop of my heart’s blood?

But then I put the thought aside when my soul confronts me and says:

“How can you present such an orchid to an orchid of ethereal and eternal beauty

Plucked straight from heaven’s garden?”
