White Orchid

I pushed my cart around the 
 nursery, looking for
something special.  I saw
plenty of bedding plants....
and potted flowers. 
The section displaying Orchids
impressed me the most.  Partial
to the white, I inspected them 
all.  Had they any buds left
unopened and were there any
new stems poking from beneath
the soil.
I selected a small 
white Orchid with a good deal
of promised longevity.


Water twice a week lightly,
the directions said....

The Orchid needs filtered light
and I had just the right location
for it.  Hmmm....or perhaps
closer to the window.

Ah yes....new visual interest
added to a comfortable sitting area.

Have a sweet ole' day, everyone.  Dee Dee
