Orchid

Neville

Orchid

Like

An orchid

In a storm

.

You

Are bruised

And you are torn

.

You

Are no

Longer beautiful

  • dusk arising

    Ouch!
    A beauty beheld can indeed lose its magnificence when the storm of argument taints the appeal.

    • Neville

      It happens... thank you DA

    • Fay Slimm.

      Beauty they say is in the eye of the beholder so lets hope that storm-torn orchid will stand taller when love calls again - - - interesting read Nev.

      • Neville

        bless ya Fay..... N

      • ANGELA & BRIAN

        Thanks for sharing NEV and a reminder that BEAUTY is transient. Im only 31 so I maintain much of my Inner & Outer BEAUTY. But BRIAN & I have found TRUE LOVE and the Beauty of True Love never diminishes : AMEN
        Yours ANGELA 🧡

          What you doing, writing about me?! heehee. Me singing is not beautiful, so it's a true write, to be sure!
          I was an orchid in a storm today too. Not much rain, so it seemed like a sand storm, blowing dust, blossom, etc. Could hardly see a thing! Horrid.

          • Neville

            Everyone should be famous for fifteen minutes... your time is up, but thanks for popping in.. N

            • orchidee

              Just call me Blossom - I've covered in it - blossom dust, that is!

              and he said -----
              I'D LOVE TO BE AN ORCHID ONCE

              • Neville

                if you were more than once, you would be a bunch of them.... a whole gang... wow, now there's a thought... cheers..

              • SerenWise

                Sad and sensitive little write

                • Neville

                  another one a bit like me then... cheers my friend... N

                  No need for a storm, we have many orchids and they fade after a time but we are secure in the knowledge that they will return.

                  • Neville

                    cheers GF60
