Harshness and Hope
Our State is dry and the water is gone
our wells are drought ridden
we need dams our foods are drying up
nitrates in our waters and cancer evolves
almonds are the worse,
this year we will share our walnuts
with crows and squirrels I hope we do not fight
but July is still not over
our republicans consider only about money
money is dry and hard to drink
the virus is growing even with vaccines
re-masking must return
it seems to be too much
and I hope so much greed will
fall into the ground, perhaps
masks return and life will become important again
