The Blue Star Sun Orchid

Shining bright with morning dew
Petals of colour; lavender and blue
A plant that’s so beautiful, elegant,
But to us humans it seems irrelevant.
The blue bright star tries to call our name,
We think it’s okay but we are to blame
Does it not have a mouth, or do we not have ears,
We're controlling its fate like mad puppeteers
Blue just like the reflection of the sky,
In the wind precious petals will fly
We can only wonder when it will die,
Can we still save it? We’re running out of time
It dances in the breeze
Ballerina arms, a blue tiny tree
It’s all up to us to make things right
We all should see its beauty in the light
