Here is a first llama poem. Molly Llama ran away in March 2021 and never came home. Everyone tried to find the feral and some did; once she showed up t a church dinner. She induced a lot of people to visit the National Forest till she died in a heat wave of July 2022. We did not know until the next year. She missed 3 shearings. She was white with a brown saddle on her back. Saint Molly Was she a martyr? She gave her life serving God, Teachinng in the woods, Showing us Nature: God'sWonderful Cretion Tillthe heaattookher. TheWoods are now her Consecrated Cathedral, Saint Molly Martyr, TheLlama of God. This is what Steve thought and I followed in writing.
@@brookrohde-wy1xm that was a sweet thought… the lama of God! Your story reminded me of 2020, when all the parks were closed. The animals prefer that people stay away! Here’s a poem for you, Brooke. Not really a poem, but I awoke with a simple song. God knows what He’s doing His will, His own choosing His love will keep you near Him You can trust the Lord.

We can bring the alpacas to the village. During the summer, they are nearby. There have been fires, maybe 5 years ago?, but they were arson fires.

About 5 of us plus one official fireman battled a large blaze during the early morning hours, and it threatened my neighbor's cows. We used buckets of water drawn from the creeks and escoba (broom plant), and we held it off until the helicopter arrived at daybreak. Old time firefighting.
More pasture is more food for them! 🎉
True! And during late summer, important too.
You loved the idea of guard llamas. Would you like my
llama poetry? Brooks Rohde
I would like to read your llama poetry!

Saint Molly
Was she a martyr?
She gave her life serving God,
Teachinng in the woods,
Showing us Nature:
God'sWonderful Cretion
Tillthe heaattookher.
TheWoods are now her
Consecrated Cathedral,
Saint Molly Martyr,
TheLlama of God.

3 years without shearing + in the heat.

The Blind Llama 19 August 2034
A llama born blind,
In sensory overload
Runs in tight circles
But with ears flopping.
She is not panic-stricken
But only excited.
She trusts her owner.
Perfect shearing manners,
Human voice calms her.
Evenin darkness
She thrives and interacts.
If one sense should fail
Animals are provided
With extra senses, all keen
To makeup for it.
