Glad you are safe, Sweatpea. It always amazes me how animals know before we do that bad weather is coming. When my bird tables are all a flutter with triple the birdlife we are used to we know the bad weather is on its way. They come to fuel and prepare for what's ahead. We top up the bird food as it empties hoping it will be enough. Before the first clap of thunder there is absolute silence... not a bird chirp or a monkey screech. It's quite disconcerting.ArtPropelledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15853722164314994360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434342308817990711.post-83678699563132925732012-11-03T18:46:58.085-07:002012-11-03T18:46:58.085-07:00My son lives in NYC...but fortunately where he liv...My son lives in NYC...but fortunately where he lives did not get any flooding.. and he now has power and is well and safe... but the images on TV are devastating and the stories are heartbreaking. the poem is so spot on.layershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10991288165260934778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434342308817990711.post-16426947811762134072012-11-01T12:03:27.875-07:002012-11-01T12:03:27.875-07:00Yes, Barbara got it right about the one and only t...Yes, Barbara got it right about the one and only thing each of us has to offer. Your permanent journal is a gift to me, all of it, the sad and the glad. Thank you.<br /><br />Life is perilous for most animals, hopefully, as you say, without dread and foreboding most of the time. I could go on a rant about my perceptions of mankind's role as conservators of the animals' environment... but, lucky you, I won't.<br />Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06700778413231259614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434342308817990711.post-6996798149922193792012-11-01T10:22:52.341-07:002012-11-01T10:22:52.341-07:00Let us not worry too much, yvette.

Since deciding long ago that this blog was being written for me ~ as a way to keep a permanent journal ~ I say what I must. I hold to Barbara Kingsolver's advice: “Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It’s the one and only thing you have to offer.”<br /><br />Perilous things happen to animals while humankind is focused on their own. I do take comfort in believing that animals are not thinking it through as we would...with dread & foreboding...they are just being and surviving and watching the views change.Sweetpeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08000313813136860758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434342308817990711.post-29562813086661697762012-11-01T03:37:46.903-07:002012-11-01T03:37:46.903-07:00tears.....lots of tears
