quiet moments like this, let a story be told. gather round boys and girls, and hear the tale of DK's
real first grow...
Once upon a time, a while but not so long ago, a younger DK inherited a tiny little plant from his mate chuck. Ernie we'll call it. Ernie was out of a home, could remain with Chuck no longer and had to be gone, that very night. DK took it upon himself to give Ernie a home and bring up this beautiful little thing. Every day he tended to its needs, moving it around to wherever the light fell, allowing it to bask in the glorious rays of the sun and grow stronger every day. And the little plant flourished, gaining size and an admirable stature much to the delight of DK.
DK was never much the green fingers, but he felt a certain bond with Ernie. As the days passed, and so the weeks, Ernie grew strong and a marvellous sight to behold.
One day however as DK came to admire his pride and joy, he noticed the plant was not looking happy. It didn't have it's regular, perky stance - rather it had a bit of a slouch, its like it'd lost its zing or something. The next morning was no better, and DK became concerned, something was wrong. He up'd his attention to Ernie and made sure it had lots of light, outdoor time, all the good things that had got Ernie to where he was. But still no change, Ernie was looking worse by the day. Not knowing what was to be done DK called around his contacts and managed to get himself a special grow light to help Ernie revitalise. Of course, it did not help. Ernie grew more sick and more limp by the day, it was just a shadow of the mighty plant it once was.
DK could not figure it out, what had gone wrong? The mystery remained for some days more..
Until one day, far into the story of Ernie's demise, the truth came to light. Mrs DK as it turned out, far from telling the truth about not have a clue what was wrong with Ernie all along, had noted the love that was spent elsewhere and secretly planned the murder of Ernie.. its still with bitterness friends, that I tell you Ernie was BLEACHED.
There was a level of distrust developed there, worse a knowledge that Mrs DK had it within her to poison such a beautiful thing and then to silently and secretly watch the poor thing struggle for life with a most convincing shrug of the shoulders and "I don't know babe...".
Its an episode I try to forget, but somewhere I read the words "female karma", out of context but the nerve is there to be hit.
Mrs's DK is still there, yes I know you will question it. Right now I am again too
Good news is that my five little champs and no where near her.
It was just a seed, a tiny seed, that my mate gave to me... (enjoy :
