Creating a Word

When you need a word 
you can't find in the dictionary
Find a syllable you like
           gar
Add a vowel to draw the sound
out until it needs a stop
            garo
Add a descriptive word,
but disguise it with an extra letter
            garosweed
Pause and see if you can enunciate 
this new addition to the lexicon
Perhaps another letter or two
            garostweed 
or maybe a common suffix at the end
            garostweeder
Now define this just birthed word
A garostweeder : a gardener who
cannot pass a weed without 
a compulsion to uproot, demolish,
abolish, destroy, and obliterate
