Let’s live like snake plants
who wear their soul on their leaves,
unapologetically & unwavering.
The snake plant sports the same look
day in and out,
never caught in fleeting trends.
They’re often told they
look good for their age,
as it's only their closeness to the sky
that reveals their time.
Unlike stubborn humans,
who become grounded through life,
Snake plants are born
absorbing lessons from the Earth
only to grow upwards
ears propelling towards the
whispering clouds.
The call of imagination crescendos through the timeline of the
snake plant,
a lesson that we humans
should hear.
So yes,
let’s live like snake plants
and pull our minds from the dirt.
