Dandelions have appeared
Much to my dismay
Multiplying just like weeds
There's more and more each day
I thought I'd let them live last year
A choice I now regret
Because they're growing quickly in
The lawn that I just set.
I pulled and dug and tugged so hard
And then I dug some more
There had to be a thousand...
Maybe even more
Not a one plant could escape
I soon became obsessed
Each seed meant a million more
I dared not stop to rest.
I still see them clearly
When I close my eyes
Those little yellow devils
Are surely my demise
Achy and so weary
I slept hard and sound
So pleased with my great effort
'Till this is what I found
