Creatively United for the Nations

Creatively United for the Nations

an absence of fear as we kick into gear
with a fire that burns in our hearts
aligned with each other, all part of one another
we are stepping up to play our parts

what can we give from the passion we live
to share with these nations of ours?
creatively united, becoming fully insighted
we all have gifts we can share

our writing expressed, highlighting the best
of what we want and see as our future
our songs that are sung, new rhythms begun
can send out these delights by computer

photography plus, a message of trust
that all want the same for the children
paintings of signs, unique new designs
displayed on our lawns and in windows

let us wear green, become the machine
that unites us all with a purpose
young painting their nails, green pony tails?
so many ways to show our support

how green can we get when we’re really set
to play the game a new way
be gone with attack ads, replace with creative adds
that unite our gifts to display

the Green party represents all it presents
in it’s messaging of walking their talk
community leaders, respected peacekeepers
all passionate about bringing about change

let us have fun with what candidates have begun
and share their commitment to serve
the grassroots are the we, wanting to be free
to transform these nations of ours

creatively united, we’re all excited
to have an opportunity to now perform
from the north to south, from the west to east
a new way to take these nations by storm

ride the green wave, surfer’s skills displayed
the wave growing more powerful as it builds
ride from the crest where the view is the best
and watch as it sweeps our nations

come out to play the game of the day
have fun, get it done and into this will be spun
the serious debates, where leadership equates
into working as a collaborative identity

Green Party candidates can’t wait, now they’re out of the gate
to run this race with integrity
distorters and cheaters may be among the “competers”
the Green Party’s focus will be on their own quest

creatively united, expertise then invited
to support each candidate that enlists
to represent us, our candidates’ thrust
will be enhanced by local expertise that is welcomed

we’re in this together and it matters on whether
we turn up to participate in the game
it’s a whole lot more fun when the game can be won
by a huge team that is creatively united

we’re all invited!

let the game begin
all are welcomed in

let’s play!

Campaigning to Win

Campaigning to Win

to win in this case is reaching our potential
and as that is unlimited, a plan is essential
first let us not think our abilities are limited
when working together the potential is infinitive

the infinite power of sharing a goal
dissolves separation as we work as a whole
each holds a vision for family and self
for community, territory, sharing true wealth

the wealth of our nation and all that’s within
starts with our personal gifts – that is where to begin
let each constituency now seek out the one
to represent not themselves but the community’s sum

a person so respected – known for walking their talk
who honours all others, a wise community rock
who holds a vision for a future that is growing and clear
where all can live peacefully with an absence of fear

this candidate that is identified must also possess
a passion to serve and collaborate with the rest
let us first work towards completing our list
having a candidate in every riding so no one is missed

we want all to be represented
we are the grassroots
we have proven leadership
whose own accomplishments she mutes

a compassion for seeing the suffering addressed
she works tirelessly, daily, giving it her best
best parliamentarian of the year, hardest working MP
best orator in the house, voted thus by her peers who can see

the qualities of leadership second to none
let’s give her the opportunity to show what can be done
let us stir up the passion of the young and the elders
our first nations, the scientists, the farmers and welders

school teachers, health workers, artists and composers
all segments of our cultures, initiators and closers
women of the country, we’ve fought for the right to vote
we have the power to shape the future for our children, take note

let us all participate, let us show the country how
by cherishing our differences, show how diversity can allow
more perspectives to emerge blending to create new solutions
implementing systems that are sustainable and ending pollutions

by focusing on what is working and sharing our gifts
by sitting in circle, listening to and debating all rifts
by heralding the scientists whose work provides new solutions
by supporting the access to educational institutions

let us radiate our desire to bring positive change
our country has the opportunity to totally rearrange
all of our systems, antiquated and broken
we have now the means, let it be spoken

voice now our support for Elizabeth May
she is the key to initiate and exercise the new way
believing in collaboration she works with us all
listen to your hearts and answer the call

let us support her as she travels this land
by paying it forward we can give her a hand
providing accommodation and venues for letting her speak
paying for her travel to the next community she will meet

we don’t need to advertise against all the others
we just need to speak to our sisters and brothers
never before has the choice been so clear
for Elizabeth May, Green Party, join us as we cheer!

Mastery

Mastery

the mastery of our existence
yes of the human race
is to pre-empt any disturbance
so as to live in a state of grace

if ever there was a reason
to reach out to others now
is the fact of the great imbalance
one we cannot continue to allow

for those seeking to control others
the easiest way to do
is to use bribery and deception
to hire or lure a crew

those suffering in utter poverty
will take any opportunity given
to simply survive, help their family
they will often do what they are bidden

to identify those so vulnerable
to support them in their own endeavours
to encourage a life that’s fulfilling
to relate to the needs of others

to master the very foundation
of an existence that’s now at risk
we must shift our focus from accumulation
and share our abundance for emancipation

the mastery of our existence
is as simple as looking after each other
to share what there is and understand
each is a sister or brother
