Weed Your Garden

Weeds in my garden they sure like to grow. It's funny how they all seem to come in a row. On Monday, the "Weeds of Depression" were so high. As I plucked the last one I gave a big sigh. Then Tuesday came and weeds peeked up from the ground. I pulled ones of "Stress" and soon had them piled high on the ground. Wednesday came a rushing on thru . I said "Weeds of Grief" I'll get rid of you too ! On rolled Thursday and I wanted to sleep, But I pulled "Weeds of Hurt" , tho’ their roots were so deep. As I waited slowly for Friday to come, "Worry Weeds" I would pull with my mighty green thumb. When Saturday came, I thought I was done, But "Sadness Weeds" stood tall in the sun. So glad for Sunday cause it's my day of rest, And I know all week long I had done my very best.
