Worth


I look upon a world that dies; no need for tears, no dampened eyes. We’ve known it for an Age or more; since we opened that “science” door releasing poisons never known. New things were made instead of grown. Our … Continue reading

Walking with Wildmen


To walk with the wildmen in places so far flung;singing songs of true beauty that are ever sung.Hearing the sounds of the world that is real;the ‘rhythm eternal’ the one that can heal.Feeling the beat of the earth ‘neath my … Continue reading
