Outside
The storm clouds gathering,
Moved silently along the dusty boulevard.
Where flowers turning crane their fragile necks
So they can in turn
Reach up and kiss the sky.

They are driven by a strange desire
Unseen by the human eye.. Someone is calling.

I remember when you held my hand
In the park we would play when the circus came to town.
Look! Over here.

Outside
The circus gathering
Moved silently along the rainswept boulevard.
The procession moved on the shouting is over
The fabulous freaks are leaving town.

They are driven by a strange desire
Unseen by the human eye.. The carnival is over.
We sat and watched
As the moon rose again.. For the very first time.

Phalaenopsis Blume 1825: The generic name means "Phalaen[a]-like" and is probably a reference to the genus Phalaena, the name given by Carl Linnaeus to a group of large moths. For this reason, the species are sometimes called moth orchids. (wiki)

Phalaena: (phalaina, φαλαινα, a whale; a moth)

Phalaena is an obsolete genus of Lepidoptera used by Carl Linnaeus to house most moths.

Phalaena was one of three genera used by Linnaeus to cover all Lepidoptera.
1.Papilio included all butterflies at that time,
2.Sphinx included all hawk moths, and
3.Phalaena included all the remaining moths.

The type species was Phalaena typica (now Naenia typica in the family Noctuidae)
