Wild Orchid

I will search for you
where the wild orchid grows.

Where love
walks untainted

and trust
is more than just a word

spoken
in false honesty.

In the shadow of the sun
where the wild orchid grows,

I will find you.
I will find you.

There is, indeed, something songlike about this poem, without rhyme, a certain agile delicacy of language that we associate with music.

Just lovely, reminds me of a song by Enya.

What a beautiful place to search. The longing and the resolve for finding the purest love is as beautiful as the words written to describe them. Lovely.
