Thirst

The watering hole is dry

No rain in over a month.

Good thing I have a spare

Or we would all die of thirst.

 

Daily rationing a must.

Animals don't understand

But know it by instinct

As they remember the wild.

keeping that instincy alive is what will keep us sustained a wee bit longer ... the spirit will handle the rest ...

On New Year's Eve, my watering hole reappeared and I enjoyed some Jim Beam the last two evenings.

But then, you may live in California. Then again, they just got rain… And even some snow.

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
