| 説明 | Too Much Like a BurrI know I'm too much like a burr,Though you don't seem to mind -I wonder, do you chafe sometimes,Or is your heart too kind?I cling to you like velcro whenThe path is spiked with seeds;I'll be there in the winter whenThe wind bends down the reeds.Those little hooks that hold me fastAre loyalty unbroken,And where my flower used to beAre cares that bloom unspoken.I know I'm too much like a burr,And now the going's rough,I wonder why you've never pausedA while - to pluck me off.Song lyric by Giles Watson, 2013. Burdock seed-cases were indeed the inspiration which led to the invention of Velcro. See Richard Mabey, Flora Britannica, London, 1996, p. 353. |
