Entangled

Dear Morning Glory:
Despite the beauty of your blossoms,
in your determined quest to reach the sun
you appear to be strangling my currant bush.
While I find both you and the currant bush
aesthetically pleasing, I unfortunately
need to sacrifice one to spare the other.

Contrary to your innocent appearance,
I know you to be quite ruthless in your
climb to the top, and it seems to matter not
whom you strangle in the process.
Please consider this letter to be
your eviction notice. You must
cease and desist from wrapping your tendrils
around the stems of the currant resident.

In order to facilitate your departure,
I am uprooting you from the ground.
While I hope this resolves our conflict,
I suspect you will try to make a comeback.
Be warned:
I will be diligent in
policing my grounds.
Sincerely,
The Keeper of the Pruning Shears

Weekend Coffee Share 5/21/16

If we were having coffee, I’d remind you – or maybe I wouldn’t have to – that last week I promised to give you a chance to talk this time around. I won’t give another long-winded exposition of my epiphanies on life.
Well, okay, just a few words: still painting the house (I’m slooooooow); took up whittling (I’ll tell you about that next week… maybe); started a yard project where I have no clue whatsoever as to how I’m going to accomplish what I’m envisioning (more info coming later… maybe even photos).
But enough about me… let’s get comfortable, sit back with our warm coffee mugs, and you can tell me all about your week.
Oh, and here’s a bit of background music for our visit. I find listening to the music without watching the video more relaxing, but it’s up to you.
Thank you to Diana at PartTimeMonster.com for hosting the #WeekendCoffeeShare.
