“Pot, Soil, Water” Transcript
Those of you with a green thumb know that a healthy houseplant like this one needs a number
of things to grow, like a good pot, rich soil, and adequate water. The pot is the plant’s home, the
comforting place it grows up in. The soil gives the plant nutrients and helps its roots expand.
Water is the basis of all life and allows the plant to thrive. Like this plant and the pot, soil, and
water it requires to grow, you can get a sense of my growth by looking at my family, my friends,
and my interests.
The pot represents my family. A pot holds the plant together, just like my family holds me
together. My mom and dad not only gave me life but a loving home to grow up in. If I ever had a
bad day, they kept me from falling apart. As the plant protects the roots and the soil, my family
protected me as I grew through my childhood.
