Plant Life

I often wonder how plants feel. It’s hard to comprehend how there can be living organisms that don’t seem alive, such as trees. So still and silent. I remember the house plant growing from a seed, but it seems unbelievable. Every time I look at it there is no movement. Then one day I notice it has grown a little. When did it grow? I can’t seem to remember. Then sometimes they die. One day it starts to turn brown and disintegrate; not warning, no reason, no explanation. And yet when I think all hope is lost, a little water and sunlight makes a sprout; and the sprout grows, resetting the cycle.
