Spare a thought for the grass
Original poem by Mrs Eileen Watson,
Matlock, Derbyshire:
With life so fast we all agree, we spend too much on economy.
We tend to our homes, ourselves, our cars.
But never a moment, do we think of our grass.
We all should take the time to show, how grateful
we are for what we know.
What would it take, for us to give,
A water, a feed, what more does it need.
Just keep it healthy and looking fine,
Please just stop, and take the time.
To think of our lawns and what they need.
Without them the world would be gloomy indeed.
Not nice and tidy and never replaced
The ground would be a messy place.
Take just a small time, to wonder because.
Our grass is so special just treat it so thus
Make it feel loved and needed so we.
Will benefit forever.
With the grass that we need.
