If you're camping in Yellowstone, dry is great! But if you're a plant, that's a different story. Excellent fibonacci. I love Yellowstone. Summer 2000, my three children and I took a summer road trip. We visited 7 national parks and did a lot of camping that year. Your yellowstone poems bring back some good memories.

Yes....unfortunately that is happening more often, and hopefully, won't contribute to another wild fire season....another awesome image in your poem, Brian!

This beautiful Fibonacci so well describes the conditions in this part of the country. Sometimes it is either feast or famine. Well said, Brian! Thank you for your support1 Love, Robin

Beautiful description. You almost make drought sound like a good thing when you describe it so eloquently. Smiles from Lolita
