Wet Orchids

A Poem by Thomas W Case

Here is a link to my you tube channel where I read my poetry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucOOifTukWQ

"
Her lips are like
wet orchids, dressed in
the spring rain,
waiting to be
kissed and
caressed.

Oh, how I love orchids! Equating their beauty to a woman's lips is quite lovely, indeed.

I love the use of orchids as a metaphor in this pieces; soft sensual and or so delicate with a hint of beckoning. Sultry yet gentle
