Dream for the Land
Laekan Zea Kemp
On her family’s Texas farm, a girl finds a horned toad among drought-stricken vegetables. Her father tells her that a kiss on its head will allow her one wish. The family’s land was once green and full of life, but a long drought has left the soil dry and crops dying. Thinking about earlier generations and those yet to live there, the girl wishes for rain and imagines the land’s recovery through stewardship.
