orchid, in february light (toast to winter series)
















kathleen stopped by
yesterday
she brought me
the loveliest
orchid

she didn't know
how many times
i've stopped to look at orchids
on my grocery runs to dillons

all those times of looking
and i'd never bought one

i stand and gaze on it
against the hazy gray
of this february morning

a cultured flower, i think

and like kathleen

rare
in beauty


*Thank you for the lovely orchid Kathleen. I'm pleased to share it's beauty with others this morning. :)
