"Gene welcomes Adonis."
It is during my late night chores in the dairy barn that I hear a strange sound - what is it? I look into each doe's pen suspecting a newborn cry. There it is - a kid - all white (Sannen) and perfect! Born of Ceres, who was born to Pearl the year before. It is a boy!
I have named the goat Adonis after the Greek God of love, beauty and of vegetation.
"It is said in Greek Mythology that the anemone flower sprang up from the blood of Aphrodite’s slain lover, Adonis."
