POETRY / POETRY PROMPT

Aloe, Aloe

A response to the prompt question “what kind of plant are you?”

I am like an aloe plant, I’m tough and self-reliant. Don’t coddle me or over-fuss or I’ll droop in sheer defiance.

I get by fine and manage well when left to my devices. I do not need much maintenance just light and water suffices.

I tend to be an unkempt mess with spiky outer skin, yet yielding, soft, and pulpy if you care to look within.

With thanks to Lucy Dan 蛋小姐 (she/her/她) for another terrific prompt.
