Whisperings<\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\nWindow sills maintain collections<\/p>\n
Hold timid living treasures<\/p>\n
In Celadon -green ceramic pots<\/p>\n
Succulents whispering across the rims<\/p>\n
Pretend to sprout prickly wings<\/p>\n
Each Aloe Vera wants a gentle flight<\/p>\n
Regardless of age or size<\/p>\n
Infused with sunshine of changing seasons<\/p>\n
Nourished sparingly with tepid water<\/p>\n
Given rest during lengthy winter vacation<\/p>\n
Succulents anticipate juicy arrival of Summer.<\/p>\n
