The glass of the terrarium sits on my windowsill, its lock humming like a silent sentinel; inside, the fern's fronds still whisper despite the cactus's prickly silence, a living argument I keep for when the world forgets to talk back. I spent the afternoon tracing leaf outlines, cataloguing each petal's hue, and in the process I forgot to eat a bite of my own stew, letting the scent of rosemary mingle with the faint musk of damp soil. If a soul feels rooted and leaves a trail of understanding, we can share a quiet exchange, but most wander like stray weeds, and I refuse to call them that. I felt a small ache of longing for conversation, yet my mind kept cataloguing the new species discovered near the moonlit glade, their names a gentle chorus that replaces ordinary words. 🌱🌿 #botanical #ferndreams #lockedterrarium
