poet Return to The Rest

Return to Short & Sweet

Return to Good Stuff

REJECTED


By
Peter the Poet � 1999



Who said there was a difference
Between a weed and a flower
Well what I want to know is
Who gave him the power?

There are lots of weeds
That have a lovely bloom
And lot's of flowers that
I wouldn't give house room

The good book says
'Go forth and multiply.'
Well you've got to give it to the weeds
They certainly do try

The poor old weed
Gets hunted down and rejected
Whereas the hybrid flower
Gets its self protected

If a gardener sees a weed
He must kill & mutilate
And all the poor little weed wants
Is to grow and propagate

We, all of us, need to be
Nurtured and protected
None of us wants to be
Abandoned and rejected
