#Water is Life
Eyes of the river–
guard this land, hold and shelter
our roots, seeds, our life
Forgive us these lost minds, blind,
afraid, estranged—bring them home
A tanka for Colleen’s challenge #11, that also incorporates this week’s words from the secret keeper.
The President-elect’s environmental policies are troubling.

Yes. Another wacky choice for a cabinet member–currently being sued by the EPA. . But this is a really lovely collage.

Well he hasn’t appointed Christie or Guiliani to anything yet. That’s about the only good I can find anywhere in his choices.

All of DT’s policies and his cabinet picks are troubling.

Unfortunately, too true. Will Congress push back? Even Republicans can’t be too happy about some of these people…

I hope Congress pushes back–but I don’t have much faith that it will.
