There is a place that I once knew where happiness just grew and grew. Where folk were greeted with a smile and asked to linger for a while. People would laugh and play and sing; a place where all could … Continue reading

The Place
Body Spirit and in song this is a place where I belong. I open wide my heart and mind; I am here now, what will I find?
Bigotry

I Stand
I stand because the guilt is mine; I know that I must hold the line. Forefathers failed; they knew the law it was just greed and love of war. Though riches made soon fell away; their karma struck at end … Continue reading

The Battle
As we battle now with Gaia; our fight against her care. She stands in gentle silence; all offence she will bare. Her heart is always willing; forgiveness is her art. If we but reach out to her she will caress … Continue reading

Pachamama
The embrace of Pachamama, her gentle sweet caress. A feeling of contentment; couldn’t be more or less. She embraced me with wisdom, gentleness and more and it’s Pachamama always feels the true pain of war.

When men become more gentle and the forests live in peace; When will it come, when will it start, when will the violence cease. We’re like a tribe that’s lost it land, a species lost it’s place. What will be … Continue reading

Time
When freedom is hid by a litany of lies, that is the time to trust your own eyes. When leaders don’t lead, but drag you behind, that is the time a new path to find. When the safety of all … Continue reading
