Such a wise crack that lets such a joke of a weed sprout inexplicably on a vast, cemented urban plain like a jovial burp we can't contain.

Someone told me a few days ago that I was like the persistent flower that kept sprouting from the concrete, and then I can in here and found this. Almost heard the Twilight Zone music (does this make me old). Now I have to go back and read this again, and figure out if she was calling me a jovial burp. ;-) Nice poem, Doug.
