The 'possum in the back yard is becoming a problem.
He's making the dogs on all three sides frantic. He's tearing up trash. And tonight my next door neighbor arrived with an axe in his hand and bloodlust in his eyes, but the 'possum had vanished. I agree that this latest backyard invader is a nuisance, but I don't think he's earned a death sentence by a madman with an axe.
A 'possum is not a pretty animal. Not cuddly, not cute, not big eyed or endearing. But still a creature of God and here for a reason. I hope he will move on rather than face the wrath of an axe.
And when the axe came into the forest, the trees whispered, "...he's one of us ...".
