Every Tuesday, step by step, I’m walking with my readers from A to Z, last week we had the “S”-challenge, so this week we’ll take “T” – I’m sure you’ll also find a photo, a story or a music title tagged with “T”! Feel free to add in the comments below the link to your personal interpretation of the letter “T”!!! Myself I’ll focus on love to a tractor:
TRACTOR LOVE
You can fall in love with a tractor, watch two examples:

Some people have friends. Human beings. Others have pets. Cats. Dogs, horses, some even dolphins. Others only have flowers. Some of us only have things. Collecting cups. Or stones, found at the coast. But there are things, which seem to live: Automobiles, aircrafts, ships – or even tractors. I found at youtube a tractor who is the drummer of a country music group in Sweden: “Sweet Georgia Brown med traktorkomp” uploaded by janake ragnar, views: 2,039,946 = more than two millions!

Hi there Frizz, I loved the photo of the tractor. But I think the duck is the quintessential scene-stealer – stole the show entirely. 🙂 I’m back this week with a TREE contribution. 🙂 Trees outside my window.

you made me thinking with your detailed tribute! “…Then on 6th August, having survived one nightmare, the 14th battalion took part in the final British attempt to wrest control of the Gallipoli Peninsula from the defending Ottoman Turks. This involved the Anzacs moving up the coast to take Hill 971, a beetling, rugged ridge known to the troops as The Sphinx…”

You do brilliantly FT. The lyrics are Jamaican patois and Rastafarian in spirit and although they draw very heavily on the Bible it is the emancipation message I relate to.
i.e. We see what they are doing and we are not running away.
See them ah come, see them ah come, but me naa run
See them ah come, see them ah come, but me naa run
Corrupted are their minds, drawn into deep dismay
The silhouettes of Satan’s illusions, cast them to their destruction
Sure and steadfast as an anchor to a rock I shall stand!
See them ah come, see them ah come, but me naa run
See them ah come, see them ah come, but me naa run
(..)
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of the wicked
I shall fear no evil
Sure and steadfast as anchor to a rock I shall stand, me naa run
Sure and steadfast as anchor to a rock I shall stand, me naa run
See them ah come, see them ah come, but me naa run
See them ah come, see them ah come, but me naa run
(Fades to dub, until the end)
