Not a Thistle

Everything in my yard can grow
Except a thistle
Because of their mean thorns

I put on gloves and eradicate them
I have stepped on these thorns
And I do not plan to again.

Good idea, but they do have a beautiful bloom and make fine arrangements.

Buddy would eat it for sure, and he is a sweet boy.
