The Nature of Things

THE NATURE OF THINGS THE NATURE OF THINGS Birds ATE Worms, Worms tilled Soil, Frogs ATE Flies, Bees Made Honey, Fish ATE Worms, People ATE Fish, Cats ATE Fish Butterflies and bees Pollinated. Grass Grew, and the Dandelions flew al around' all around' and Were Welcomed, Life was simple back then. Praying Mantis fought. Snails made slime. And the green grass Still grew sublime The trees bowed in dignity and neutralized the Pollutants in THE AIR... Then gave US the Oxygen we breathed, and the red clover grew all around' all around' Even the rocks did their part, Filtered the water and trickled it down, to well up Into Springs... Purified...and the red clover grew all around' all around' That was the nature of things... when men loved naturally. Until the disorder. Who ordered the disorder. If you if you do not know now.

Before no more green grass grows all-around', all-around' I would ask you to draw lines and never let anyone cross your boundaries. I would tell you that the herbs and the vegetables were our medicine, study them and get to know them again. I would implore you to question everything. You are more than able And never follow the crowd. read the labels We use to have Songs like Black and Proud, or War by war. War (uuugh) "What is it good for" I would say so much to you send this hug to you. Today I might be dead and gone, but call on my spirit I will come.
