Cowboy knows How nature goes The wild creature Knows dignity and beauty They are one of a kind Empathy is found In hearts of those Who know stars and sky Men can't be fenced in They can't begin to see That barbwire Makes one bleed Cling till it is cut off By a hand that put them up The land belongs to no one.

Re:No Mans Land Date Posted:12-04-2016 01:31Copy HTML Maria it is a sad picture and no doubt many wild creatures were troubled by barbed wire in the past and probably still are today.
But I suppose there might have been some kind people in those days who rescued the wild animals...Tony (potleek)

Re:No Mans Land Date Posted:12-04-2016 03:30Copy HTML I guess barbed wire was cheap for the use of when cordoning off ones claim in days gone by, Maria,
now i guess it's now just a convenient way of keeping both creatures and others off what is theirs. It's truely sad when one sees this scenario and the damage done can often be fatal, a picture and words so telling of how man looks after what he considers his property, Zy x Opposites exist by virtue of each other

Re:No Mans Land Date Posted:12-04-2016 08:38Copy HTML Thanks Tony and Zy, the picture touched me, I felt deeply soulful when I saw it, had to write something to the marvelous picture that shows that a tough cowboy doesn't always shoot the wild critters. They "do" come along to rescue the poor creature caught in the razor sharp wire. Most of the cattle barons let their herd run free. I wish they all would.
