Funny Weed

sorenbarrett

The funny weed

where others fail it does succeed

lifting spirits that fly into the sky

giving such a wonderful high

Condemned by many it makes me yawn

I smile seeing it flourish in my neighbor's lawn

              Now I feel like eating my hat ..

              • sorenbarrett

                Straw, felt, or cloth? Munchies are one thing but dandelion soup is a bit hard core. Thanks for the read Neville

                  Considering that the neighbors yards around me are manicured and well watered, mine is a haven for clover, crab grass and any other weeds that choose to land there. I am an equal opportunity landscaper, and the naturel look suites me. I also hate lawn care, so at best I cut and let be what will be. Did I mention the moles? Great write my friend.

                      Cheech and Chong would love this. Great work.

                      • sorenbarrett

                        Yes I think they would since they were not too particular about what they smoked. Thanks Thomas

                        And legal, finally.

                        • sorenbarrett

                          Yes in some places and under certain conditions. A pity that when alcohol is legal it is more restricted. Thanks for the read
