Plant Rights Poem by O Anna Niemus
Plant Rights
My neighbor's yard is running the sprinkler
... dewdrops of grace
She's violating the water laws..
because the plants have rights intrinsically
and because she knows that trees
invoke rain
**
(Bayard Webster of the deforesting NY Times wrote
that each average size tree evaporates 42 gallons
a day of moisture (think what the redwoods do)
.. which becomes mist and then clouds and then rain)
