Oh— to be a Pothos vine Crawling towards the light Always takes her precious time Makes every room so bright! Oh— to be a golden green With marbled fronds so lush She, the thriving Houseplant Queen Makes other flora blush! But, lo— beneath her heavenly form Her truest magic resides For through the winter and the storm She’s balanced as the tides Oh— to have that perfect Pothos Power Flourishing through the night Oh— to grow and never to cower No matter how daunting the fight For it’s her courage that we envy, Her fortitude that we fear Her resilient leafy frenzy That will suddenly appear Even when you think she’s dead and gone The stars will still align A tiny sprout will bloom at dawn The mighty Pothos vine!
My Pothos plants seem to grow in every season, in every room, and in every condition. They always bounce back - through moving homes, vacations, overwatering, under watering, and everything in between. I admire them for that.
