A poem

I love leaves, oh how they gleam,

In my home, they reign supreme.

Their texture, shape, and vibrant hue,

Each new leaf feels fresh and true.

The anthurium veitchii stands so tall,

With rigid lines that do enthrall.

Anthurium calxmag, a sight to see,

In deep brown-red, it captivates me.

Hoya leaves, tiny and slow,

Expand with grace, a gentle show.

When they start, so small and sweet,

Their growth is a wondrous feat.

New leaves bring purpose, a daily thrill,

I wake with joy, my heart to fill.

To see them sprout, to watch them grow,

A journey of life, a gentle flow.

They make me feel alive and bright,

Excited, happy, with pure delight.

Intrigued and proud, I stand in awe,

Nature's beauty, without a flaw.

It was believed that the most beautiful women, goddesses, were to have fuller figures and round faces. Look at any statue of Aphrodite and she has a tummy, round cheeks, and often a softer double chin 🫀 The goddess in the first slide was exactly that, a goddess, rolls and thighs, and all 🥰 #godd

Poem: Sadness is a Parasite
