Weeds

Brooding invariably brings out
long suppressed ‘thought’ seeds 
to the surface, for they remain dormant, 
if stay buried for many years. 

The 'bosom-field', when 'dug up' 
produces numerous dreadful weed,
A crop of accumulated impressions, 
which, when come to the fore, 
Ransack serenity and poise. 

The 'weeds' must have laid 
buried there since ages and, 
when the subconscious is stirred, 
they come to life and 
become a perfect plague.
