 poem of the day May 27 

The native plants
made one 
last stand
atop of 
pristine hill
Surrounded by 
invasives 
eager to 
spread their will 
The natives held
the pristine land
until the arrival 
of a good intentioned
wandering man 
Who on his way
up the hill
impulsively dug  
a pretty flowered
invasive strain
and planted it
in the untouched 
fertile ground
where it soon
spread all around
Now no longer
known as pristine hill
but just another mound
where native plants
were forced out 
of their ground
