In defence of weeds I submit the following:Weeds- Does man not know why wild weeds grow?I bend down low before I sow, much pressure on my knee. But then I ponder, deep in thought, why God did this to me?What is his reason that I do not see?And thus I ponder, then I see He sits up there and laughs at me. If I had opened up my eyes I too would see the why. For if no weeds were growing there my seeds would surely die. How clever he has been to fill me not with scorn. I have but to look down low to see what earth has born. For no matter what is my intent I cannot grow crops in hardpan or cement. Now when you weed before you sow remember to give thanks, those creatures wild, adorn your yard and tell you at a glance if those seeds you sow, row in row, will even have a chance. R.Peel 2020
