ostentatiously
it sits
in a
vase on the table
next
to a basket of fruit
where
an equally flamboyant fig
fetches
my attention
purple
is
my favorite color
the
orchid is loud with
its
vivaciousness
while
the fig lays, quietly, waiting
God
created these two, solo, acts
and
how beautifully they perform alone
but,
together they create a symphony
