Love Poem: Orchid

Orchid

Thought you were mine,
Sweet Orchid!
Until that day,
When jealousy prevailed,
And others
Came between us.
But what could I expect?
Such erotic beauty,
Sensual curves,
Desirable passion,
Who could resist,
A flowering goddess
Like you.
Admirers were many.
Far and wide,
You kissed the world,
With arousing colours,
Irresistible perfume,
Everybody wanted you!
What could I do?
My lonely heart!
Fragrant memories,
Residue of vanilla.
Essence that permeated!
Reminding me,
Of your love.
