That Wonderful Word "Nor"

One man and his cohorts

may be trying to destroy the world

as we know it, causing grief 

to millions of people 


Behold....

he cannot stop the sun from rising

Nor the warbling dawn chorus of the Magpies

 

 

Nor the cackling laughter of the Kookaburras 

Nor the Wood ducks from raising their delightful little families

Nor the crops from growing 

after this most welcome rain 

Nor our delight in absorbing 

another vivid, awesome sunset

and clouds with silver linings

Welcome each Day...... 


 

Once again Blogger has not allowed me to write the text next to the photos which is very frustrating.... so hope whoever reads this will understand the sequence of the text with the accompanying photos.....
