Weathered turf Fights against the steel Clean sharp spikes Penetrating hard packed soil Struggling to fight off Dandelions and noxious crabgrass Growing in greensward despite A lack of much-needed rain Renewal begins as Aeration creates holes Spaced apart ready to accept Seed flung across the lawn By the cranking of a flywheel Beneath the canvas sack of kernels Destine to become blades Of new grown Kentucky bluegrass Re-seeding, renewal Essential for lawns As well as all living beings Which regenerate physically, mentally and spiritually to fight off Scars and growths That disfigure and destroy

Re-seeded
Weathered turf Fights against the steel Clean sharp spikes Penetrating hard packed soil Struggling to fight off Dandelions and noxious crabgrass Growing in greensward despite A lack of much-needed rain Renewal begins as Aeration creates holes Spaced apart ready to accept Seed flung across the lawn By the cranking of a flywheel Beneath the canvas sack of kernels Destine to become blades Of new grown Kentucky bluegrass Re-seeding, renewal Essential for lawns As well as all living beings Which regenerate physically, mentally and spiritually to fight off Scars and growths That disfigure and destroy
Reseeded my lawn a couple of weeks ago and it looks like it is off to a good start.
