Weeds can be so beautiful, though. The smell of yellow dandelions, and the gorgeous puffball of white seeds -- and of course the bitterness of dandelion milk.
Clover is a weed, and the little green plants with tiny yellow flowers whose leaves taste like lemon. So are the tiny stalk plants which grow about 4 or 6 inches high with leaves up the stalks and then have purple flowers on top.
And no matter what happens, no matter how many kids trample on them and pick them and eat them and throw them at each other, they come back every year.
