Potted Plant



Life as a plant,
In a box.
Either
Care
Water
Sun
Growth
Beauty
Or
Darkness
Drought
Famine
Decay
Death
Some can be saved
Watered
Care
Light
Some are past the point
Of recovery
Sometimes you can re pot
Sometimes re potting kills
Sometimes you just
Hope that the seed
Survive
Growing far
From the acidity
That plagues
This state of mind


If you have a potted plant then you might like a garden. In just about every garden there is a garden gnome and other garden accessory. If you like plants then you should have a garden with cute little garden gnomes!

I would like to ask a favor of your blog. Would you be willing to put your comments as a pop up box like mine are?

Sometimes I can't get into this type of comment.

In anycase, I was going to say:

Sometimes re potting does indeed kill.

But sometimes you're surprised because it didn't kill, the green just went dormant, and years later they sprout again.

When that happenes, it's pretty cool.

Done;)

I know I desperately want to re-pot myself some where else. I know they say no matter where you go there you are but I have to believe that a new environment can spark new growth or at least return a bit-o-life

We must find and prosecute the bastard who did this!!

Brian: I am living proof that a kick in the relocation ass jump starts your life.

CT to MA to FL to CT.

Now possibly back to MA to Boston...you should come with me.

If that is your plant then you must give it a proper funeral and send it on it's way...

Love the poem though!!

That's not the kind of plant you should be growing...
