she gets her way

I think orchids get their way because of their soft beauty…
nicely done

yes, they are much stronger than they look…and bloom eternally…or seem to.
Lovely poem.

Clever and sweet… never thought I would use these words together.
It seems you’ve caught the essence of the orchid here Bjorn 😉
Thanks for the fragrant reminder that vanilla comes from an orchid.
