The Weeds

The scourge of the garden

The Weeds

Along with the beautiful flowers,
The weeds are quickly spreading.
They are the scourge of the soil,
And the place to which I am heading.

The time involved to get rid of them,
Is often more than I desire.
But, if you want beautiful gardens,
They will surely light your fire.

I don't like to use herbicide.
I hate to use poison at all.
To halt the pests, where flowers reside,
I'm pulling them, late into the Fall.

Mulch helps suppress the weeds.
I use it often to aid my needs.
When they're gone, I rest easy.
When they return, I get queasy.
