finally
the crops never grew in our barren spring
the dirt became less than dirt
powdered corn starch
the kids did jigs they called rain dances
to appease the worried frown in the elders heads
now it is raining
the ground is solid again
people in the grocery store gathered to buy meat for their BBQs
and laughed about having to grill in the rain
here everyone understands
IF there is no rain the deer cannot eat
predators that depend on deer can not eat with out them
we have no protection against rabbits and squirrels taking over
nibbling all the crops before they can grow
otherwise "cute" little critters those rabbits and swuirrels,
like a team of rats breaking in to your house
and eating all your food
if they eat all the green growing things
the cattle could not survive
without cattle, the people could not survive
nature has a finite balance
a hand as sharp as an executioners sword
it fell in our favor today.
Yay for rain. We got a good soaking this last week.
ReplyDeleteThe balance of nature has to have all the ingredients or it doesn't work.
