Cuentos Espanoles

Solange knew that she would not find many orchids in France

So she travelled to Spain

Objective behaviour was required

There was no room for error

Various orchids attempted to be original

But she did not fall for their vanities

 

Cuentos Espanoles

And this is where the orchids were normally kept

The rare orchid in Solnange’s story

Had been hidden by the doorpost of the kitchen

And this is why Solange had difficulty in locating it
