A Common Spotted Orchid
For JC
It is a highly successful
coloniser of wasteland
and not at all in danger
Both my Google Lens
and a quickie Wikipedia
yielded to your knowledge
Just an assurance of such –
there was no doubt in my mind
that you were right – none at all!
Seeing such beauty has an effect –
How can a thing so vivacious
be left – without being taken?
An uncommon allure
among easy rough grass –
there is more to this orchid
Such observations ran quick
as my eyes and mind
took you – assiduously –
from behind
