Lawnmowing

Spring has sprung The lawns gone nuts Mowing time again No ifs or buts A martyred sigh Trudge to shed Drag out mower Filled with dread Attempt to start Psyche self up Try many times Any luck? .... Nup Give up the fight Drag back to shed Watch the lawn Grow long instead Ignore complaints From near and dear Enjoy the daisies Mow next year
