506 Entries for “orchid”

  1. A beautiful tree, a simple sweet scent. All lined up in a row, they sway in the wind. Orchid the wind sweetly and softly whispers, orchid. The smell wafts gently through the wind, passerbys wonder over the origin of such a silent gift.

  2. Beautiful flowers that for some reason make me think of death. Not because they’re dark or even shaped like the grim reaper, but it’s there all the same.
    If I were to look at one I may not feel that way at the time, but when I think about one I think death.

  5. I stared at the flower on my bedside table. It looked so delicate, so fragile that I worried it would vanish if I took my eyes away from it. The petals were blushed delicately with pink, and the stem was the richest green I’d ever seen.

  12. Orchids seemed to stretch out before me as I ran through the jungle. Could they really be there or was this some strange dream? My heart beat faster, my blood rushed, I knew my head was blood red with effort. I had to run. I had to get away. He was after me. The man with red eyes and pure white hands.

  15. The orchid lay there, curled and beautiful. I hadn’t ever seen it before, when I left everything was dark and gray. Analisa came out into the yard and was watching me.
    “What is it?
    I spoke without looking at here, staring at the flower.
    “was that always there?” And unspoken, behind it the words.
    What else did I miss?

  20. when i first think of the word orchid, a color comes to mind. This may be obvious to most, but not for me. After I thought of my response, I immediately thought, how odd. I would usually consider thinking about a field of flowers or something beautiful. But no, I came up with something completely unoriginal. Not thinking outsid

  21. Orchids are flowers. When my dad was in hospital, his colleagues from work sent him an orchid. It was pure white on a long, dark green stem. It lived longer than he did.

  24. Orchid, I’m not exactly sure what it is, I know you can grow it. I like the sound of the word very much, it goes along nicely with some sort of petite plant growing in some woods that you would see in a LOTR movie. Frodo smells the orchids!

  26. The orchid’s black as Verel turns to look at it, although she was certain it was light pink a moment ago. “Damn,” she mutters. “I guess that went wrong again.”

    Black’s an unusual color for an orchid, she muses as she picks it up, but fitting enough.

  30. Pretty purple flower, delicate and graceful. A gentle zephyr blowing, its slight scent lignering in the crisp cool air. Bees buzzing and butterflies fluttering, attracted to this pretty bright coloured flower, full of grace, elegance and sophistication.

  31. He stalked amongst the plants – rows upon rows of colour and delicacy. Here and there, he paused, dipping his head to inhale the scent, or lifting his hand to caress a stamen here, a petal there. His face was drawn. This act was purely mechanical.

  37. orchid, a shape in space by Gary Hume: it reminds me of a blueprint, a design. Perhaps this is how God, or animals, view the plant: an outline. It also makes me think of people, how we meet them as a mere outline, how they are created as a mere ouline, and are filled by interaction with the world.

  38. Is a plant, a flower. Pretty but often carries a feeling of menace. It usually carries the feeling of being deadly. Like the night.

  39. The fabric was beautiful, a dull orchid color. She held it up to her nose, sniffing the familiar scent, that soft baby scent that never really faded. It had been hers. It had been her baby’s, and she would never leave it behind. It was too precious.

  40. a beautiful parasitic plant that lives in the tropics.
    a fragile looking yet remarkable resilient plant.
    how it survives, hanging midair, seemingly on nothing but air and water is amazing
