My Morning Thought on Hill Country Water
By
Walt Perryman
For many years we have been in a drought,
And our ground water supply is running out.
We have fires breaking out all over the place.
We have people moving here at a rapid pace.
I believe we are issuing building permits too fast,
When we don’t know how long our water will last.
We have wineries everywhere that’re doing fine.
We need to learn how to make water out of wine?
Some may believe that our prayers are in vain,
You better believe differently and pray for rain.
