Have We Forgotten ?
Maybe we have ?
Maybe we’ve forgotten ?
Forgotten about the land
Forgotten about all people
Forgotten about all living things
Our connection to it all
Forgotten we can’t take it with us
That we borrow from future generations
That life is brief
That life is a gift
No rights, only responsibilities
Listen to and learn from our elders
Their stories and wisdom
That become ours to pass on
Working together
Finding a good way forward
Is progress really progress ?
If all we do is consume & destroy
Let’s give back, responsibly, together
Give back to Mother Earth
Our wee blue planet ~ Giver of all life…
From the city of concrete and glass
Towers to mankind’s ego and greed
More, more, more
Me, me, me
Forgetting to be kind
Back up the coast to nature’s forests and trees
Air to breathe
Winds and tides
Rivers and seas
The way we were meant to be
Working together
Enough
Sharing
With joy and ease
Living in simple harmony
