When I was a kid, I used to pick fists full of them and Queen Anne's Lace and clover. My mother would say "why are you picking weeds?" And I would say, "because they're pretty." Kids are so simple that way. Very nice one. I'm glad to see someone else sees something more.
A weed is but an unloved flower. They're all over my yard already. Great Haiku, Eric!!
