Joyce Johnson Poet Rhyme

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.

Isaiah Zerbst January 10, 2013 at 12:03 PM 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.
