Summer is strong this year
Long and dry.
Water is low
And nature is suffering.
A time to act
A time to reflect.
To address
Or to deflect.
Please fill your bird baths
Or invent a make do one.
Pebbles in a shallow water bowl.
Or simply trowel out a shallow hole.
And sprinkle with water.
Not too deep.
Enough to safe paddle.
Enough to bathe.
Summer is strong this year.
Summer is dry.
Take care of your habitats.
Be bee aware and plant that pot lavender.
Bees need flowers, nectar, and water.
Summer is strong this year.
Nature needs our help.
Keep long grass patches.
And shady long corridors.
Blackbirds can’t worm.
Rabbits can’t pull grass.
Ducks have no pond.
And herons have no fish.
So appart from insects
Hedge berries and fruit-
Wildlife right now-
Needs your help.
Please give them water.
