When I first started to read this I thought to myself it may be a bit too dark, but it took a turn down funny street.  Lois Corcoran is a known author and has published several books like Jest For Fun, Jest Between Me And You, and few other top sellers. She writes with humour and wit. A very sinister yet pleasant method. Nevertheless, you can not deny her brilliant technique. This poem is called Confessions Of A Killer. Confessions Of A Killer by Lois Corcoran Few suspect my double life, 'twould make a dandy thriller. My poker face does not reflect the fact that I'm a killer. I'm not your average murderess -- deceptive nomenclature. My victims are botanical. (They're of a plant-like nature.) My methods are diversified but always I'm discreet. I subtly assassinate each struggling sprout I meet. Drowning often does them in but then sometimes it's drought. Frequently it's too much shade that snuffs their young lives out. Begonias are my favorite prey. They never live to tell. Impatiens die before their time. I guess it's just as well. So never leave your plants with me - this message I implore -- Or else your healthy Wandering Jew won't wander any more. https://www.rd.com/funny-stuff/funny-poems/

*In my opinion the writer is more close to nature and that's why we can see that plants are the highlight of this poetry and so that's why the line saying as don't keep your plants with me, because these lines reflects the attraction towards the nature's piece. Thanks for sharing and wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. 🙂*
