Raising Sheep, Regenerating the Land

by Rebekah Rice
Saratoga Meeting

 

When my parents purchased our family farm in upstate New York, no one had actively farmed for many years. This land, with a history of having been purchased from Mohawks in 1673, had in the years since been clear cut, overgrazed, plowed, and eventually mostly allowed to grow back to forest. This was typical for land settled by colonizers in this area.

Oh oohh uh oh!

I forgot to take my anti-love potion today.

I’m in love with everything. Again.

 

The day held out his arms.

We embraced.

“I love you,” said Day.

What did I say?

“I love you too.”

 

Energy pouring through all life.

We are attuned.
