Walter
Yo, Walter came through, took a chainsaw to my trees,
First the fruit, then the magnolias—what’s the deal, please?
Dumped broken bottles, shattered glass on my lawn,
Turned my peaceful little garden to a battle at dawn.
I’m out here minding business, keeping it legit,
But Walter's got the nerve to throw a childish fit.
Assaulted me, reported me—what’s his next play?
All ‘cause I used some weed spray on a sunny day.
*(Chorus)*
Walter, why you hatin’? What did I do?
Cut down my trees and broke my peace too.
You’re toxic like the weeds I’m tryna clean, dude,
Messin’ with my vibe—why you gotta be rude?
*(Verse 2)*
Yo, the fruit trees were memories, planted with care,
But you cut ‘em down like you didn’t even care.
My magnolias were blooming, sweet and serene,
Now they’re gone like a nightmare in a bad dream.
You think you’re tough, but your moves are foul,
Breaking bottles on my lawn, acting hostile now.
You tried to bring me down, but I rise like the sun,
Walter, you’ve started something you can’t outrun.
*(Chorus)*
Walter, why you hatin’? What did I do?
Cut down my trees and broke my peace too.
You’re toxic like the weeds I’m tryna clean, dude,
Messin’ with my vibe—why you gotta be rude?
*(Bridge)*
Now I’m stronger, got my roots in the ground,
You can’t shake me, Walter, I’ll always rebound.
You can cut my trees, but you can’t stop my bloom,
I’ll turn this mess around, bring life to the gloom.
*(Outro)*
Walter, take your drama, pack it up, and leave,
I’m building something stronger, you better believe.
My garden will grow, my spirit will thrive,
You can’t keep me down, I’m staying alive.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
