Warning Signs

 













Daffodils: the harbinger of Spring -

Tall green shoots

(lawns that need to be fed, watered, mowed)

Bright yellow flowers

(trees and bushes that need to be pruned)

Busy, buzzing bees

(wasps, yellowjackets, horseflies, mosquitos)

Fading, falling petals

(sweeping and raking and mulching)

Wasting, withered stems

(weeds to be pulled, invasives to be poisoned) -

Daffodils: the curse of summer chores.
