We abandon their names
Though their colors give shape
And fragrance
To summer.

There are many a weed(s) that I appreciate. Pretty shot and verse.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful image.;) I adore weed, as I find so much inspiration in its resilience.;)
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend dear Sandy,
xoxo
Any plant growing where you don't want it is a weed. Having said that there are few plants I think of as weeds. They are all beautiful in their own way. Like people.
ReplyDeleteIt all depends on where they choose to grow.
ReplyDeleteOh I used to ignore grasses and weeds until I turned to hiking and found their early morning fragrance intoxicating :D
ReplyDeleteWe can find beauty in so many things if we just take the time to look. I love the warm yellow color and the droplets of rain/dew! A wonderful reminder, Sandy! Hope you have a great Labor Day Weekend! Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteLove the text nd the picture. I have often wondered about the difference between weeds and wildflowers. I post a lot of pictures of (what I prefer to call) wildflowers!
ReplyDeleteBut its a nice weed!
ReplyDeleteso delicate and pretty
ReplyDeletewhat an exotic and colorful weed!
ReplyDeleteThis is too pretty to be a weed. I prefer to think of it as a wildflower.
ReplyDeletethey do indeed!
ReplyDeletethe positive side of weeds...so true!!
ReplyDeleteTo me this is a sad poem, Sandy. About a beautiful, in its own way, throw-away-plant.
ReplyDeleteYou could be writing about the hundreds of thousands--could be milions--of throw-away people in the world. Or stray animals.

What a gorgeous looking weed that is! Looks cheerful especially after a catastrophe like Irene!

Your sentiments mirror mine. Lovely write.
ReplyDeleteLove! I find when I am out riding- I am drawn to the beauty of "the weeds" but have NO clue WHAT I am photographing.
ReplyDeleteSo true, Sandy!
ReplyDeleteThey add to beauty...
I have many a times admired them during monsoons amidst the extensive greenery.:)
Thanks for being here.
