Destroy All Seeds and Save the Landscape

I expected bills and fliers into my mailbox, instead I have found these small peculiar seeds; this uncertainty isn't a quiz but a parodox. I was about to plant them into the backyard when CNN News came on and warned not to open them: I thought about losing my pretty daffodils! Who has sent these small peculiar seeds today? Are they trying to thrill or upset me in the midst of a horrific pandemic that's spiking in the Midwest? It spells trouble and it's bad news for me and everybody! Even a person with average intelligence can figure it out, " Destroy all seeds and save the landscape! " I will post this on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to warn everyone: " Don't lose your lovely garden to the foolishness of some!"

Very cool bent. Sage warning, though I'm not informed of its premise. Apt beginning of poem, draws the reader in.
