Weeds, weeds everywhere.
I go and pick them,
but they done care.
They laugh at me,
as I walk away,
then they come out again to play.
But I have a secret weapon,
they don't know I have,
It is just finding the time,
to use this salve.
A little in a jar,
goes a long way,
and then they will find,
they can no longer play.
So yes in my world,
things are looking up,
as far as a garden,
there will soon be no gossip.
Well maybe a little,
from the okra I plant,
and now is the time,
for the turnips to chant.
I have waited so long,
so patiently too,
to till the soil,
and grow something new.
