I wrote this song for my children, about this living Earth I love so dearly, and all the precious life upon it. I believe everything in this world has a living essence, a soul, and all is connected. We are all One - Rock, Plant and Animal. We are all instances of the Universe, perceiving itself from infinite subjective perspectives.
With everything that is happening in the world right now, I think it is clear the time has come to change our ways. To approach each day with humble gratitude, our hearts open wide, souls radiating, dancing and dreaming a new world into reality. A harmonious, life-sustaining world, where we look after each other, our animal brothers and sisters, and our Earth mother that nurtures us.
lyrics
Rock, Plant & Animal
There lives a humble sound
That renders love and peace
It ripples on the water
And rustles in the trees
We’ll make that sound a yes
We’ll make that sound a yes, yes, yes
Of our beloved earth
As puzzle poem beings
Rock, Plant and Animal
All dream
We’ll bravely open doors
Our shadows softy cooing
My darling, you’ve done the wait, now sing
Your true song
And make that sound a yes
And make that sound a yes, yes, yes
