A New Chapter

A New Chapter
a new chapter in the book of life
an eagerness to write it
to experience and be it
it is our creation
collectively
we are present on every page
our chapter can be read
in continuum or opened at any page
it holds the warmth of love
and the scent of roses
so sacred is our work unfolding
we write it, read it, experience it
and work effortlessly to weave it
weaving its vast wealth
of colour and texture
of wisdom and knowledge
of curiousity and playfulness
into the fibre of every day
come what may
we will have all had our say
as we journey
into the beyond

Demo-crazy

Demo-crazy
democracy – a system  of governance by the people’s representatives
demo – demonstration of a technique
cracy – denoting a particular form of ruling, governing or influencing  i.e.. autocracy
crazy – not in one’s right mind, acting wild or aggressive
in these times of great change
let us question it all
how did our way of governance
evolve and then fall?
do we all have a voice?
what does representation mean?
are all perspectives examined?
is true justice seen?
are the scientists heard?
are we being proactive?
can we lead with positive change
so the whole world is impacted?
listen to the elders
listen to the youth
listen to our indigenous wisdom
they are all the living proof
they know, we know
we can’t continue this way
let’s focus on a common intention
and let the NEW now have a say
