I was not born
With my Mother's 'green thumb'
The apple fell far
From the tree, on that one!

Thank you Becca! (It's obvious that someone with trees in her profile picture, would love a poem about plants!) ;)
Doing research to learn everything in life and respecting Christmas tree as well as other trees in Earth is nice and interesting. This poem flows very smoothly. A tree is a healthy green friend. Nice poem is shared for awareness...10
Thank-you so much, Kumarmani, for reading, commenting, and liking! :)
Thank-you, Alison! I'm glad I was able to help bring about a smile!
Read every line with a smile on by face, So beautifully narrated, with love and with grace. So Happy Poinsettia for you, and a healthy one too.
Sandra, I think my friend Sue must have bought me an unusually healthy plant! I've had this one since before Christmas of 2015! It has even survived a move (a relocation) ! Thank you, as always, for your cherished comments!
Such a little thing. You're poetry deserves much more Than my humble worded score! Its survival may be due to how you look at it, 'talk to it', Maybe?
Sandra, again you read me like a book! How could you know I occasionally talk to it (as in, Hmmm, you look as though you could use some water) ? I s'pose it's common sense that many plant owners occas. talk to their plants. It's been said that the plants actually enjoy it!
It's so good that you kept and looked after your friend the poinsettia. I keep my small garden tidy, no weeds, and just a few plants which I water every day in summer. There is also a lemon tree, which i regard as a friend.
Wish that I had a lemon tree! Thanks, Michael, for your comment. P.S: My poinsettia lives on! : -)
