The bird flew down and whispered
It’s time child is it not?
The earth is fast decaying
And man’s a selfish lot
He cares not of helping others
It’s all take with no thought of give
Tell me now in all honesty child
Is that any way to live?
War, death, famine and destruction
That’s man’s legacy these days
Taking far more than really needed
Seems to be the latest craze
No thought of anything spiritual
It’s take and take some more
We simply can’t allow it child
The time draws closer now I’m sure
We’ve got to restore the balance
Like Noah and his Ark
You’re all heading towards the abyss
And from there no one comes back
I know you can’t believe it child
You still retain some hope
But we’ve waited long enough
There’s no length left to our rope
We’d like to think you’d change
Start truly caring for a time
But compassion’s now a weakness;
Humility a crime
Too many souls lie dormant
The light of love has gone
Why should we allow then
Such things to carry on?
The clock is slowly ticking
The heart beats slower yet
Darkness is fast descending
It’s time to pay your debt
Waste not your tears of sorrow
The blame lies firmly at your door
Taking, wanting needing and then
Stealing more and more
One final hope remains though
To turn back the hands of time
Make amends for your past actions
Pay penance for your crimes
Love and serve humanity
Pay homage to mother earth
Plant seeds of loving kindness
And then witness your own rebirth
Smile instead of scowling
Help others whenever you can
Look for similarities not differences
In each of your fellow man
You all breathe the same air
Live under the same sky
Show then each other some compassion
Then love and live and cry
Try to lead by example
Shine the light of love on all
Do not judge less you be judged
Get back up each time you fall
Look within for answers
Help your fellow man
You don’t all need to be perfect
Just do the very best you can!
Namaste!
