well said and horribly sad. also reminds me of the title of the Clint Eastwood movie ‘fistful of dollars’ because that is the motivation for a lot of this

Such a powerful, important, heart-touching poem, Ivor! One of your bestest!
So many of us feel exactly as you do. It is all so confusing, scary, uncertain, depressing, angering…yes, we are choking on it all. 😦
So many of us who have always gone to nature to find hope, joy, peace, beauty, give our gratitude, ETC, are doing so even more these days.
Your photos are so beautiful and hope-giving! 🙂
(((HUGS))) and ❤️❤️❤️
