Venture #2 / Karrie Gull

The water flowed continually through the mountains, it had done so for many, many years. Some years had brought forth a greater abundance of water while other years only supplied enough water to trickle down through the mountain paths. Many droughts had encumbered the land and effected the water abundance, but the course of the water was unchanging running free and true. The water is not and was never selfish for it gives freely to all who desire it's fresh cool taste. Many nearby trees have pulled their roots up from the dry soil in pursuit of the water below; though many had not as yet to reach the cool and quench their thirst. The life around the water is strong, it is the greatest friend of the fellow ant who scurries this way and that. The greenery is lush and colorful along the water's edge, and creates if you will a mini paradise for the insects who crawl and climb below. One by one all creation comes to and depend on the water, and one by one all thrive and live from it's juices. The water helps bring and sustain life.
