Oh Christmas Weed, Oh Christmas Weed...

The Christmas Weed
(not cannibis)

This weekend I discovered a 20-inch (50.8 cm) weed on our back patio. Trying to get Big Daddy to "get in the spirit" of lawn care, I added a lone Christmas ball and made an announcement.

"This year, instead of putting up a Christmas tree, we are going to have a Christmas Weed," I said.

He laughed, saying it looked like a Charlie Brown tree. 

Now, if he would only cut the grass...


Update:  As it is now Monday and the weed still lives, I offer up a fractured song lyric.


Oh, Christmas Weed, Oh, Christmas Weed,

How Grinchy are thy "branches."

Oh, Christmas Weed, Oh, Christmas Weed,


As cuddly as a cactus.


Pernicious as a dandelion,

Will you be here past Christmas time? 


Oh, Christmas Weed, Oh, Christmas Weed,

How Grinchy are thy "branches." 


Do you have a Christmas weed (not cannibis) just waiting to be trimmed?  Share a photo!
