The splintered walls to the green pastures
Where the birds and buds are breaking
Into fabulous song and hue
By the still waters.

#46. Would it really be so bad if you slowed your life down even a teensy bit? If you took charge of the ingredients of your food instead of letting corporations stuff you and your family, like baby birds, full of sugar, corn products, chemicals, and meat from really, really unhappy animals?
