Anna Hridaya
Sahara Creators
Who created the Sahara?
Roman ship builders cut hundreds of thousands
of trees, and felled in addition to the trees
the fragile rain cycle.
Solomon to build his own temple
destroyed the pillars of God's jade temple.. the cedars
of Lebanon and in return his own temple did not last.
*****************
Bayard Webster, nationally syndicated US writer:
each average sized tree evaporates 40 gallons of moisture
daily which becomes mist and then clouds and finally rain.
(paraphrased)
