From cloud-kissed heights where forests dream,

In lands of mist and emerald gleam,

There blooms a heart in crimson light—

Anthurium, bold and burning bright.

 

A "tail of flower," its name reveals,

With spadix poised like golden seals,

It paints the shade with glossy grace,

A painter's palette in nature’s space.

 

From Andes born, to far-off seas,

It graces homes and island breeze,

In Caribbean air it grows,

And Réunion's lush garden shows.

 

Not merely fair, but pure and wise,

It clears the breath, it purifies—

Toluene, ammonia fade,

Where flamingo flowers parade.

 

A gift of beauty, strong and clean,

In every bloom, a touch serene—

Bouquets of wonder, hands of care,

A living flame that scents the air.
