Orchids In A Bunch

These orchids in a bunch

Had seeds from the strange coasts

Once buried below the topsoil

But rose from bottom up

These flowers in a bunch

Were tired poor and wretched

But huddled onto the golden shore

Sacrificing the blossoms in the bosoms

These orchids in a bunch

Are refined than they were yesterday

Breeding changing colorful petals

Forging through thick and thin

These flowers in a bunch

Bear thorns that latched only onto hope

As they braved the ruthless oceans

Taking the risks that men dread

These orchids in a bunch

Have stalks thick and strong

Building the link that bridges

The future into our lifetimes
