Psst, she used to go by Sansevieria but she is a Dracaena now.

Beautiful poem, thanks for sharing. How about one about sprouting seeds?
I work at a wholesale perennial grower, normally just doing plant care. But this week I've been running the vacuum seed machine. Every time I take trays out to the greenhouse I get to walk through the millions of seedlings and it's just had me giddy all week.
Oh my gosh! I forgot to hit reply and my tab has been open for days now! Here's some free style, I'm working on a full post too.
Tiny spots, deep in the dirt. You know which way is up. You strive, you push. Stretching towards the sun, you spread your leaves. Pushing through, you bloom.
I don't know if I turned off notifications, or if they're off by default in Kbin. But I didn't see this until now and I just wanted to say thanks.
Awesome idea! I'll see what I can come up with.
