Blood Heart Orchid


In the misty roll of the mountains
Where the jacarandas sleep
I found my place in the bracken
In the bracken my heart did weep

Solitude took my mood over
The weak sun obeyed the singer
Fear in the wind tangled my hair
As the lilies huddled in cluster

Fork-tongued trees were taunting
And sneering as they married the hour
Yet I knew that deep down within me
Ran the blood of an open flower

For I am a blood-heart orchid
And I bloom in a long forgotten land
In sweet hallowed fields of abandon
In the misty mountain�s hand
