Her lips are like wet orchids, dressed in the spring rain, waiting to be kissed and caressed.

Oh, how I love orchids! Equating their beauty to a woman's lips is quite lovely, indeed.

I love the use of orchids as a metaphor in this pieces; soft sensual and or so delicate with a hint of beckoning. Sultry yet gentle
