Heap

Worries never seem to die.
Like this path of green
Full of life and enticing
Yet,
All Iam bothered about
Is the heap of weed
Hiding behind the green.

Easily understood. I think all of us have some of those weeds.

Yes, I think weeds are like worries' They grow everywhere, even in the brightest garden.

Another short yet focused poem that has such a neat message -- look past those weeds. Follow the green!

Much as we pretend, the cares always there. You say a lot in very few words.

The weeds are part of the garden, arent they? Just like our worries;part of us whether we like it or not.

Wonderful. Very observant and obviously quite applicable to many of us.

makes me grateful for the rain today - I have an excuse to avoid the weeding!
