You see us wave gaily in the breeze, catching the light and transfixing your eye. That’s just fine with us. We cloak ourselves with meek, graceful, delicate looks – all nice enough. But on that pivotal day, coming soon, we shall open up and launch our spurred foxtail assault on unaware passer-bys. Our swords are in their sheaths now, and our heads bowed down, like the silent ninja contemplating honor before his swift attack. So please, come closer. It’s almost time!
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.
