Daily 5/4/2025

I use the ground claw to turn the soil.

Oxygen is needed or it's just spoiled.

Pull up all the weeds with the deep ass roots.

Sometimes they intertwine find them in cahoots.

You can't leave them there they have no clout.

They will gang up on your roses & choke them out.

Leave your garden looking ugly and dry.

No one admires your yard when they walk by.

Sometimes you will hit an ancient root.

Do not let it fool you it is in no way moot.

It grows very fast and it's filled with lies.

Have all the roses in the garden wearing a disguise.

Once you get that thing in your grips,

better bend both knees and use your hips.

Once you pull that nasty thing out of your garden,

you need to do so much less watering!

Roses grow beautiful red and green;

when they aren't getting choked out behind the scenes.
