Miracles And Birdbaths

The wind blows for us; let's let it!
Let's take everything we can't think of
Let's direct it straight into the pure absolute wind.

Let's a hug a tree like a child hugs their father.
Let's feel the heartbeat of the earth.
Let's believe in miracles and birdbaths
As love believes in the absolute purity of wonder.

Let's love each other!
Let's listen for God and his easy silence,
So we can enjoy it.
Let's understand the people and their mystic violence,
So we can avoid it.

Let's smell flowers!
Flowers are a miracle of love
And we are miracles of God.
So let's smell flowers and give them to God.

Let's know each other, let's help the little ones.
Let the little ones sleep outside with you.
Let the little ones ponder themselves to heaven.
Let the little ones love you till they feel free.
Let the little light shine and skip and play.

The sun shines for us,
Go outside, smile, figure it out.
If it feels overwhelming
Have the wind blow away your doubt.

 

The Earth Needs Love

The Earth Needs Love

 

The earth needs love

And it gives us the sky

The earth needs companionship

And it gives us space

 

The earth needs peace

And it gives us the wind

The earth needs release

And it gives us the jungle

 

The earth needs experience

And it gives us the air

The earth needs gentleness

And it gives us bugs

 

The earth needs change

And it gives us the seasons

The earth needs beauty

And it gives us the ability

 

The earth needs light

And it gives us the land

The earth needs the night

And it gives us the sun

 

The earth needs nurturing

And it gives us the water

The earth needs wonder

And it gives us the desert

 

The earth needs the people

To realize the earth is alive

And needs the same love we do.
