THE WEED WHACKER
He was known as the Weed Whacker.
His lawn was green and lush.
There wasn’t a weed to be seen,
The grass was soft and plush.
The Weed Whacker whacks weeds,
They never get the chance to grow.
Every time he whacks a weed,
He swings his whacker like a pro.
The Weed Whacker’s on the job,
Ever vigilant and on guard.
“Never give a weed an inch" he says,
Or they’ll surely take a yard.”

It just gives the weeds a continuous wack.
But weeds soon grow up again, without a sound.
Cause it never gets to the roots buried deep in the ground!
Well done, once again, Michael!

roots and all.
Whenever I heard or smelled,
a new weed growing,
I was on call.
So if you're ever,
in the mood to kill a weed,
just call me up and I will come,
to do the evil deed.
Sure love your wacky rendition. The Weed Eater was invented right here in Houston in 1971. Actually used primarily to edge our fast-growing St. Augustine grass that sends out runners over sidewalks and driveways. St. Augustine grows well in hot humid climates and crowds out most weeds.
