Living With Nature

The North American People
Lived in a natural way.
Their wastes were all compostables;
Would return to the earth one day.

Fish fertilizer fed their crops,
No additives in their food.
Nature was pharmacy, grocer and home.
And living was healthy  and good.

A nice lifestyle, but it is a whole lot of work too. They also died of any serious disease because of no medics. I see what you mean though; life without the encroachment of moder society might feel free and peaceful.

This is indeed living with nature, Joyce. I so wish I could go back. Many of our ailments started when we stepped away from nature's way. Good write my friend. One love. Joy Wells
