Plant
Hello there, my plant
parent,
It’s me, your green,
well-behaved cutie, lighting up your day. I’m sure that you’re grateful that I
never argue or pick a fight. I‘m just a quiet little fellow thriving on
sunshine, your affection, water, and positive vibes.
I fondly recall the
day you decided that you needed a plant in your life, went out, bought me from
a handcart, planted me in a pot, and assumed the role of plant parent.
I’m aware that you
were never a plant person and are a 'late bloomer.'
Though I wouldn’t
call you a ‘green thumb,' you take care of me pretty well, and I’m grateful for
that. Your gardening skills and knowledge may not be world-class, but you never
shy away from learning, trying, and improving.
You talk to me, try to
water me regularly, make sure that I get the right amount of sunshine, feed me
with homemade fertilisers, and generally try to make my life comfortable. I
notice everything.
I shall not dwell on
the occasions when you have neglected me, overwatered me, or have forgotten to
water me. Yes, my leaves drooped and my spirits too. I forgive you and remain positive, stretching towards the
sunlight. I decorate your home, purify the air, and am a quiet observer of the
happenings in your home.
I thoroughly
appreciate the fact that when you go on a vacation, you place me in a tub of
water and hope for the best.
My favourite part?
The delight and excitement on your face each
time you spot a new leaf. You post and
share pictures of me on social media. You’re one happy person, and I feel loved
So here’s to me and
you.
Let’s grow and thrive
at our own pace—slowly and steadily, taking one leaf at a time.
Thank you for my
siblings. I love the company.
