Cradled amongst the vines Feet deep in the moving soil Before the summer rain The sun filters in further Life! It appears lesser In memories of long ago Rains never ceased Rivers, so fresh, streams so swift Life! Was everywhere, never adrift Vines will soon be no more Strength is now getting weak For there is nothing left No river, no mountain No more rain Trees! Were! Grew! Died! < !signature--> [This message has been edited by Daniel J D (edited 10-13-2000).] |

serenity* How very true you can sense the same thing I do. Imagine the many forest people who saw the gradual rape of their ancestral land. Such a tragedy of modernisation. |
