Whispered Wanderings

Weeds?

So misunderstood
these plants that grow in my yard
just want to survive.

I’m told to remove.
But who am I to play God?
never been my place

to pronounce judgment
on some wild form of life
that’s doing no harm.

They bring my heart joy,
yellow flowers so graceful
small and delicate.

I shall dig them up
gently and with reverence
replant them in pots!

Decorate my yard
same flowers, now purposeful
Let no one else judge.
