Today’s poem is from the genre “found poetry”. While tidying up I found a list of plant/cacti related puns written by my wife. I co-opted that list and come up with the following light and fluffy piece…
Garden pun fun Nobody pots baby in the corner I'm not tired, just a little border Crazy plant lady This place looks a little shady You make me wanna sprout Weeding 101: Pull it out, if in doubt I will survive You look berry nice I was 'natural' twenty plants ago You reap what you sow I wet my plants What do you call migrating plants? Transplants. Leaf and let live It isn't easy being green Pretty fly for a cacti If you wanna party I'm a fungi I am so over(watered) it I'm a succa for you That's a gnome, not a trowl It's all gone to pot I feel the need to branch out That looks like hard graft A gardener's delight? No weeds in sight.
