Aching Limbs
I set out to weed my garden.
The blossums are lovely indeed.
But since I've been working daily,
They've been displaced by weeds.
I worked on my knees and roughed it.
I pulled every one up by hand.
My fingers are swollen and bruised now.
My legs can barely just stand.
I got it all out and I'm happy
To see the soft colors of blooms.
But if I say one word about weeding,
Commit me! You'll KNOW I'm a loon.
Quite enjoyable! The painting adds a really nice touch, as if musing satisfactorily over the job well done.
I needed a smile tonight. Thanks for that! ~Tim
