ART BY LUCINDA SHON There is an earth song
If you listen you can feel it
It moves us
Moves our spirit
The stars surround us
Illuminating the night sky
There is an earth song
If you listen closely
You can hear it
Your soul in tune
The moon it spins around
This blue earth
Pulling the tides
Darkness comes in so softly
As the sun never truly sets
Your spirit never truly dies
The earth revolving
The winds blowing
Through azure skies
The oceans rise and fall
There is an earth song
A symphony of the universe
We are connected
To it all you and me
A constant rhythm
A tempo that never falters
Never changing
It is our hearts that bring in the harmony
There is a song
That the earth it sings
Building ever so slowly
Ever so softly
If you close your eyes and listen
As everything around you
Is growing, is moving
Even the blood inside our veins
A constant rhythm
Never stopping
Perpetual motion
The core of the earth
Chanting its mantra
The clouds gathering rain
From the mountaintops
To the deepest depths of the ocean
Ever so subtle
Ever so powerful
The earth song building
To its crescendo
Then quietly
Without missing a beat
A never ending symphony
Earth song
So beautiful
We can’t forget
Our hearts must know
To add the harmony
The earth song internal
If you listen you can hear it
If you listen you can feel it
Like a spirit of the earth
eternal
