Poem 26: Weeds

Saw a pretty little flower,

Getting prettier by the hour.

I watered it everyday,

Making sure it'd stay.

Little did I know it was the beginning of a weed,

Spreading much greed. 

They surround my lawn,

And drowned out all the roses by dawn. 

Piece by piece you stole my heart.

You ripped every good thing apart.
