Dear Sharyn,
What a delightful picture you draw in this exquisitely "non-poem" (just kidding). You, of course, are surrounded by such vivid displays all year. Must be great inspiration, which you take great advantage of.
Regards
Reg

    Bless you, Reg - oh dear, this one's not for you at all ... best I can do is two long "oh" sounds in "old" and "glow", sorry! oh well ... I think you might have missed my previous one, about getting old (not that that's at all relevant to either of US of course) - but its rhyme scheme, if I may say so myself, was pretty damned good! :)))

Sharyn, you are very lucky to see the beauty you have there everyday. We have beauty here in Ohio, but, nothing like yours. Your description of what you saw gave me in my mind the same view. Thanks for sharing this,,,,,,,Jim

You described this little house so beautiful. The house was nothing special but the orchid curtains gave it its glow. Nice little poem.

It's amazing how flowers can turn something unpretentious into a miracle. Landscaping makes a big difference. Putting out flowers show that the owners care. They love their home.

What a gorgeous visual you create
I love the idea that this old, unpretentious house is made to glow from the beauty of the luxuriant orchids surrounding it - making the ordinary extraordinary :-) Brooke

...Sigh...oh I know just what you mean - I've seen similar sights. Somehow it's like the house takes on a personality, that warmth radiates from it, as if the people within are so happy...(when they really could be miserable and mean! LOL! But it's fun to imagine...)
What a lovely poem! Its ambiance is so evident, and so simply and elegantly presented in tow powerful words - orchids and glow.

    Ooops - make that 'two' words, the 'towed' ones are not so simple! LOL. Ah, some of the best days are the simple ones...:)

Oh, to live in a land where such a waterfall of orchids would not cost several hundreds of dollars!

A spectacular visual you've created .... a breathless, breathtaking one-word last line.

Yep I got your vision in multi colored reading. A story to boot. Bet you drive by and look more often for that happy look?
