|~| Autumn Wind |~|

...in the Autumn Wind i heard a song,
heard trees whailing of pain...
pollution their daily breath,
animals on the verge of extinction,
each day one more nearing it's death...

...was time to wake up long ago...
take drastic steps of healing...
heal our mother that nourishes us much
and never showed us but a gentle touch...

...time to show mother Gaia our love and gratitude
...time to stop thinking of power and greed...
...time to change our attitude...

time to let go of ego but think of us as ONE ...
whether tree or insect, human or being not of this planet
our balance depends upon,
what each of us do , and each of us think...
each of us feel, in this long connected link,
that forms one chain, one space, one universe
and the autumn winds blow on for us to converse...

let the leaves once again sing of joy,
let flora, fauna and humans survive and not be a toy,
that we play with and throw away when we think the game is done,
it all makes us loosers, because we are ONE,

as one we started as one we grow...
one we were and one we always shall be,
a link unbreakable, one with our creator for all eternity...
