Mummy and Daddy just ask me
i know what’s important to me
i am here to look after my brother
and also to be allowed to just be

i strengthen by using my powers
the greatest of these is my love
i feel such a connection to beauty
and understand the symbol of the dove

if we live every day with a purpose
to be loving, caring and free
we can undertake any new challenge
as long as you listen to me

The Art of Persuasion

The Art of Persuasion

the art of persuasion no longer exists
each must make their choices
and no one can insist
that another aligns

so instead of persuasion
let us lay out our wares
showing what we have
and looking at theirs

let us ask our questions
and listen with the heart
for seeking understanding
is the critical part

allow the personalities
allow how they speak
focus on the message
and the wisdom they keep

we have the means
to work together
together we can co-create
a future for our children
knowing all that’s at stake

Rising Women

rising women, let it be known
out of their cages
into freedom they’ve flown
capture the essence of all they have been
recorded, experienced, all that they’ve seen
with strength and resolve to change the old ways
they’re gathering, sharing and counting the days
the days and the hours that it will take now to spread
from woman to woman, across the ground that we tread
from sister to sister, crossing oceans and plains
what are they sharing? what are the gains?
thru silence and stillness, often witnesses they’ve been
now they’re emerging, no longer unseen
they ready to hold hands creating a web
and we will all listen to what will be said
they know that the suffering, the suffering has grown
from controls, dominance, imbalances we’ve known
so to step into the light and see, be the change
will take every woman who’s no longer estranged
estranged from the future, the future that can be
where her children, grandchildren can truly be free
where life on this planet is honoured and kept
free from pollution and balance is reset
where the sharing of goods becomes local again
and healthcare and education are easy to attain
where beauty is enhanced on every inch of the Earth
where there is a total renewal, a total rebirth
women are rising for they always birth the new
and from heart to heart they are calling to you
gather the wisdom, the love that you’ve known
for those are the seeds that are about to be sown
