The spring water which
pools in seasonal ponds and
evaporates over the summer
is still standing alongside of
the road. As time goes on it
will freeze and deer will crash
through it when it is covered
with snow. I do not know
deer speak but I imagine
there will be some colorful
words spoken. At the present
the colorful fallen leaves are
floating on the mirror like surface.
Nature is profound. We tree hug
and feel good but basically or in
reality can do nothing but like or
dislike it. I like it in all of its forms.
It is awesome to think that there
were glaciers where Lake Michigan
is now spectacularly showing itself.
They slowly receded to where
they now exist far to the north.
They did this all on their own.
Man was not involved and couldn’t
have affected nature’s process even
if they had wanted to. Nature is
unique and man has no influence over it.
If man could cause a climate change
they could also reverse it. Not too
long ago one of the founders of
Green Peace admitted that the
whole idea of their existence was a farce.
Today Lake Michigan is at record heights.
We accept it just as we do
the beautiful fall leaves changing color.
