SPROUTS

(a weedy problem)

They know, they just know where to grow, how to dupe you, and how to camouflage themselves among the perfectly respectable plants. ~ Dianne Benson
Sprouts without doubts Pretending to know the abouts, Ready to grow into louts Of the most nefarious sort~ Useless as fuzz on the spouts, Tedious noise-maker flouts, Sending flowers into the pouts.
