Bracken
Rich but still part of nature's pips
Fronds contain toxic compounds
Nature's non - chemical intervention rounds,
means digging crushing cutting out,
could be labour intensive no doubt
A traditional method used,
was part of nature's moves
Run boar on bracken,
root them up
Broadleaf habitat
Coniferous woodlands,
near farmland in fact
Large head long narrow snout,
with small ears about,
but certainly connected,
to the nature cycle,
already in clout
Who keeps it natural without frout
Bracken you know the seasons well,
you start to turn brown,
under the autumn spell
