Weed Whacker

Weed Whacker

I whack the weeds
and free their seeds
then fertilize
as seedlings breed
encroaching on
the flower bed
forgive me Lord
I wish them dead!!

Haha...there are some weeds that when you touch them the seeds explode!! Don't know whether to pull them or just let them go. Very good, John.

I have resorted to telling people that I am a master dandelion grower.
