Things are looking up, this weed says! Be optimistic and look towards the sky! These bits of weed anatomy appear after flowering on a very low lying, ground hugging plant. Soon they will open to seed. But first, they stretch and reach toward optimum height. And, if trouble might appear, the pointers could easily double as swords to fend off any onslaught.
Please come back tomorrow for a new “Weed Image of the Day” and let me know which ones you like.
We and our weeds are so much more than what we first appear to be.
I am inspired by things that grow in the ground and blow in the wind. I like to play in the dirt, especially when planting something, and can talk to trees. I like to look closely at things that at first seem small, insignificant, dried out, or contrary. Weeds may not welcome me with swollen blossoms, but the visual treasure they offer up, are well worth a look. Do you agree? I hope that these images of the oft-overlooked pest of our gardens and yards may give to you some delight, hope, or a new thought to make your daily journey just a little bit more inspired.
