I can tell by the angle of the sun, that Bob should be here soon. I've come to think of him as Bob by the way his head moves up and down as he lumbers across from the neighboring green house to mine. But, of course his name is probably anything else but Bob. Maybe one day I should know his real name.
Funny how I have already come to think of this green house as my home, when I have been here such a short time. But, it does have all the comforts of a real home. A wonderful roof that lets in my nurishment, the daily watering by my silent friend, lots of family members of various plant life. Especially, the tall elephant ears and all my dear tropical family that help me blend in so well.
What a lucky day it was when I found this place, almost as lucky as the day I found this planet. I want nothing more but to stay here forever but, there seems to be a force beckoning me to leave the first safe and peaceful place I have ever known and that desire gets stronger every day. For now, I will not think about it and only occupy my mind with the soon arrival of Bob.
