Alan Stobie's little eye

By stobston

With every step we grow and grow.

Said the foliage. Well they would if they could talk back. I talk to plants.
I'll let Charles Dickens have a say.

Whole ages have fled and their works decayed,
And nations have scattered been;
But the stout old Ivy shall never fade,
From its hale and hearty green.
The brave old plant, in its lonely days,
Shall fatten upon the past:
For the stateliest building man can raise
Is the Ivy's food at last.
Creeping on where time has been,
A rare old plant is the Ivy green.

Blip.
