Ah Spring
Gardeners eyes gleam
with hopes and dreams
of seeds to sow
Food and flowers to grow
Oh no
Our gleam, hopes and dreams quickly fade
as reality invades
Our hearts sadden
Knowing that yet again
this summer will bring
WATER RESTRICTIONS!!!
DROUGHT CONDITIONS!!!
Our lovingly tended plants, blooms and harvest
must wither and die
as once again
Chapman Lake will run dry...
and yet
new house permits and construction abound
new developments breaking ground???
already there is not adequate Water
to go around!!!
