This really captures the sentiment of the dust bowl era--a poignant song that makes you wonder how the farmers and families survived a dreadful man made natural disaster. Unfortunately, we fail to learn from our past mistakes--"we read our history books and see nothing new". Today big AG depletes the soils in the Midwest, plants row crops right up to the river's edge and builds huge animal confinements with no concern for the animals, land, or adjacent neighbors. It's all about money!
Wow...I just lost my 3 year daughter last year, October 7th...I love the sky and stars just seem to bring me closer to her. This song is awesome and I can really relate. I cry each time i hear it :).....Thanks to my friend who turned me on to this music. I love it !!!!! and Thanks to you who provide this awesome music with such deep meaning :):)
This is one of my favorites, thanks Jonah.
