petals' silken touch
life's open invitation
orchid's graphic tongue

icebox...I have found that flowers are used to say many things, most of them based on love.

A bit specific for a haiku, I'd think... it could have done without the word "life."  But maybe that's just my own response.  Otherwise, I like how the title hints at the context of the poem, and sets a foundation for the imagery in the reader's imagination.

Well done, Icebox...

Faith is a fine invention
When gentlemen can see
But microscopes are prudent
In an emergency.
