Little blooming orchid with her pink petal dress,
Little blooming orchid with long legs to impress,
Little blooming orchid at Stellenbosch University,
Little blooming orchid neo-pagan in society,
Little blooming orchid among wine orchards drinking tea,
Little blooming orchid full of hopes, full of dreams,
Along comes a humming, alluring music evokes trust,
Along comes the shadow, into darkness orchid is thrust,
Little blooming orchid has been hidden out of sight,
Little blooming orchid will not bloom, will not grow,
without light,
The sweet smell of the orchid proving difficult to resist,
The bird is humming sharp beak ready, ready to persist,
Little blooming orchid has be torn from her stem,
Little blooming orchid has maliciously been bent,
Temperature drops, coldness sets in, the orchid has but legs.
Pink petals lay upon the dirt,
the orchid
is now
dead.
