Deep in the jungle remote
a wild orchid grows free
a wild orchid grows free
Its petals spread in delicate glory
with the pure beauty of a magenta hue
A sweet scent sent down from heaven
completes this ideal creation
The only flaw is its location
For this flower will never be seen
Its stunning perfection
never glorified
Too far off the beaten path
Just no way this spot can be reached
The flower lives out its life
alone and unappreciated
Is it real? Does it even exist?
How do we believe
miracles we can't possibly see?
Why must we be
so empirically stubborn!
Always demanding proof intellectually
when all we need do is trust our hearts
The most natural
secure depository for beauty
Belief brings the flower to life
Faith sustains the memory
If you don’t believe in anything
then all you have is nothing
