"Paintings" Needed for Poem Themed Game Museum

This is indeed may not be the typical "artist needed" classified ad. I am looking for multiple artists of different skill levels to interpret one line of the following poem.

The Promised Nights

Oh behold the time, the time to unite.
Our cause be together, together fights.
Look the many for to come orchid night.
Look the many, the long days and short nights.
Fluttering by, the soul fair night.
It is the promise; the promise unites.
The line I am focusing on is "Look the many for to come orchid night." What is your interpretation of what an orchid night is? Please submit "paintings" that are at least 400X400 pixels in dimensions.


Thanks,
MinisterJay

Sorry, MJ, Philistine that I am, I'm afraid that poetry, for the most part, leaves me stone cold. My loss, certainly, but, to me, it could just as well be written in Ancient Greek, for all the 'sense' I can wring from it. I hope I'm alone in this.

It is a prophecy for a kingdom. It is a tale told from generation to generation.

In my personal poetry, I hardly ever rhyme, and do free verse.

...It is a tale told from generation to generation...
Maybe it's suffered over time, then, and lost its meaning as with the game 'Chinese Whispers'..?


Breaking News, Tonight..! An ancient scroll has just come to light, which may (or may not...) shed some light on an ancient tale, passed down verbally over many generations. Here it is, transcribed from original lost tongue, Ghum Arabic...

The Arabian Nights

Oh behold the time for our Turkish Delight.
Our jaws together, chomp till daylight
Loukoums for all, for all on this night.
Look how they glisten in the torchlight.
Flickering shadows cast on the sight
Of the promise; the promise of the first mega bite.

Mmm..! Loukoums..!
