Marijuana, The Beautiful Plant

Marijuana, The Beautiful Plant

The plants stand tall and green

Seven fingered leaves absorbing the sun

Growing daily, reaching for the sky

Marijuana, the beautiful plant

Buds like freshly iced cake

Grow green with white resin drops

Resplendent among the seven fingered leaves

Marijuana, the beautiful plant

Harvest is both a joy and a pain

Joy abounds with reaping of the buds

Pain for the loss of the beautiful plant

Marijuana, the beautiful plant

Crumbled, rolled and smoked

Colors meld together

In a psychedelic kaleidoscope

Marijuana, the beautiful plant

The aroma of cooking wafting on the air

Sets the mouth to drool and the craving begins

Sated, naptime is imminent

Marijuana, the beautiful plant

To some it’s illegal

To others a boon

To me it’s just

Marijuana, the beautiful plant
