Pre-Surgery

Pre-Surgery A green long-leaved plant on the table she says doesn't need water for the next fortnight. Does the plant bear flower? No, she says it is supposed to be green striped like this It has a lovely colour and is not a bother Not like the rose plant that craves a constant attention If you leave it alone for a week, it wizens. The Christmas tree is white this year to give the illusion of snow this tree doesn't need looking after, I say It is better to buy a Chinese tree and save the forest she retorts. Surgery tomorrow, only light food and water, I feel grumpy.
