Lost Nature

Oh how much I pity the coming generations 

                                               That 

                   Have to pay for crimes they never committed!*

* No snow in Moscow, cherry trees bloom in Germany,
London enjoys warm weather. Nature will retaliate.

Wise Demetrios. Wisdom at its best I mirror the same comments my good friend Paul has said.

So very true, Demi!! Humanity has been too unkind to nature; a price has to be paid, both by the guilty and the innocent! But in the meantime there is always the possibility that nature will revolt and retaliate! ~ Regards // paul

That is my point, dear Paul. Nature is unforgiving! Happy New Year, my friend.

This is unfortunate! If seasons disharmonize catastrophes will follow and the human race along with the animal kingdom will suffer! Thank you, dear Timotheos!

Jan, how nice to see you again! Yes, there are many things that go on in today's world that break my heart. I have reached the point not to regret that I am getting older and approach the exit. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, my friend! Hugs!
