2. I stopped to hear this bird today
what was he trying so hard to say
his music struck my very soul
I understood that was his goal
I listened closely at what I heard
from this impressive stunning bird
the sounds he used were so intense
as he just stood there on the fence
I had to take a closer look
and as he sang I softly took
the time to place him on my arm
as we both stood there on the farm
We gazed into the fields you see
of this vast land’s infinity
and felt the winds of Nature’s churn
that pressed against our every turn
The singing stopped to my surprise
The farms floor dropped before my eyes
I found myself behind this wall
that turned itself into a ball
The bird flew quickly towards the space
where this big ball spun at its pace
and turned himself into a light
that stood above this ball so bright
The light allowed for me to see
the Earth right there in front of me
I felt some comfort fused with pride
as I could see what was inside
3. A world where nature was intense
Where Earth’s perfection was immense
Inhabitants that walked these lands
abided by Earth’s great demands
The creatures there both big and small
were harmless in this great big ball
They stood beside the humans there
were free to roam round everywhere
They grazed and played among the Earth
so energized and full of mirth
I looked back up into the light
that let me see this world’s delight
and asked if I could walk around
this perfect place where I was bound
The light grew dim, as did the view
I started passing right on through
The force that kept me in my space
just vanished from this pleasant place
The singing bird that turned to light
was now within my piercing sight
he flew with me through new frontiers
that proved to be before my years
“What is this place my feathered friend?”
“Why am I here and on you depend?
What happened to the days I know
where they refuse to let us grow
where those who in the name of greed
have taken all our precious seed?”
He spread his wings so wide apart
and placed his right one on my heart
and said these words I understood
I knew from then on that I would
4. remember them forever more
they told me what we had in store
“The human heart has lost its place
in humans who, refuse the space
of Nature’s right upon your land
to feed the world at God’s command
They took the seeds from Mother Earth
placed there by God upon its birth
which fed the hungry and the live
and kept them healthy and alive
And as it’s written it shall be
the just will earn eternity
the wicked ones and all their worth
will be cut off of Planet Earth
For those who sin below the sky
without remorse for those who cry
shall soon receive what they have earned
and the Earth they’ve harmed they soon will yearn”
I stopped a moment to take a look
as I approached this crystal brook
I crossed its bridge so I could see
its water that astonished me
I saw some signs of life below
of creatures moving to and fro
fishes of the strangest kind
the type you’d think you’d never find
They swam with grace as they moved on
to other parts and soon were gone
I moved on closer to the brook
where I bent over as I took
some crystal water in my hand
and drank it to my hearts demand
5. I felt it nourish every cell
It made me feel so very well
I turned to look unto the bird
that bathed himself without a word
beside a space where water ran
where this fresh water brook began
“Tell me bird, I need to know
how water here can nourish so
It leaves a sense of health inside
no other water can provide”
The bird looked up and said to me
“You’ve drank the water now you see…
where you are from they’ve found a way
to take the things God made to stay
The seeds, the water, sun and air
are vital things that God sent there
They take and take without remorse
they’ve driven Earth way off its course
They’ve found a way to steal the Sun
from Planet Earth and everyone
And when they make their final blow
Towards all the things that make Earth grow
A vicious process will ensue
for all those on the Earth with you”
I left the brook to walk through fields
that had such stunning fruitful yields
The soil where all these foods were grown
were rich in nutrients all its own
I thought how back there on my land
the growth of food is in the hand
of those who like to change the seeds
6. regardless of all life forms needs
They challenge science day by day
turned predators and Earth their prey
Too blind to see what they have done
to Planet Earth and everyone
How is it man’s allowed himself
to wreck the Earth in search of wealth
till all is ruined in the name
of their own selfish greedy game
It’s sad to see how man has changed
creating laws that are deranged
that lack the use of common sense
and harm the Earth at our expense
I took a moment to reflect
and pay this world its due respect
I now would speak to those I’d seen
among those wondrous plains of green
By then someone approached my side
The bird had now become my guide
We walked towards those who picked the trees
and ate the fruit then saved the seeds
They then would place them in the ground
where other seeds lay that were found
“I wish you all the finest day
and wish that all those seeds you lay
will keep producing when they should
the finest fruits that this Earth could”
The Guide was humble, nice and meek
His presence one that all should seek
7. good mannered, honest, patient, kind
these things back home you just can’t find
Qualities my guide did own
were not a gift to him alone
The ones I saw that lay their seed
had qualities as his indeed
The peace and comfort of this place
was written there upon their face
They had no faults that one could see
they thrived with generosity
“We receiveth all the good you bring
May Earth rejoice and pheasants sing
You brought with you the keeper who
will learn to heal the Earth with you
Upon his journey ahead in time
he must not leave you far behind
for you will be his main defense
from those who honor false pretense
who fail to recognize the needs
that Earth provides within its seeds”
The Guide just listened till the one
who instructed him was almost done
He knelt right there upon the floor
as the one who spoke would start
Once more…
8. “Earth’s water, soil, skies and lands
are in the keeper and in your hands
You must prevent what’s going on
before what’s left of Earth is gone
Right then and there I understood
I was to go back when I could
to change the future of the seeds
along with all the wicked deeds
“Behold,” I said to their surprise
“Who runs that whole huge enterprise?
I know not where I’ll be nor stand
nor what I’ll say nor do on land
The day that I from here depart
I will not know just how to start”
Before I finished what was said
all life forms there just raised their heads
They stared at what appeared to be
the sky transformed into a sea
The forms of life that filled the sky
were sealife now there way up high
I saw how whales could freely roam
in that huge priceless endless home
A sound was heard among the waves
It echoed as if from the seas deep caves
I could hear a voice down fell a scroll
the voice read what would be my role:
“Precious child of my creations
of which I’ve placed on firm foundations
to live in peace and share the worth
of all the goodness of the Earth
9. I’ve sent for you so you could see
just how the Earth’s supposed to be
How Earth possessed and shared its wealth
abundance thrived and so did health
Life forms roamed and had it all
upon this gracious abundant ball
Today you’ve witnessed and must comply
go back to Earth and testify
of all that you have seen and done
the world must know what’s soon to come
May all that’s good by their own hand
redeem the Earth and all Earth’s land
For those resisting to abide
by placing all that’s good aside
shall crave the home they’ve known since birth
and lose their place on Planet Earth”
I’d seen the berries and the bees
The earthworms and the living trees
Marvelous birds and butterflies
brought graciousness throughout the skies
I saw the brooks, the hills and streams
A place you see throughout your dreams
I felt the peace and love inside
that this here place did well provide
There was no greed, no claims nor strife
to disturb that cycle we call life
This place belongs to beast and man
to work with Earth as best they can
10. This wondrous chance for me to see
the Earth right there in front of me
rejoicing in its very own
true luxuries that it has grown
have opened up a place inside
my inner being I now can’t hide
I’m grateful to have seen myself
the grace of God through Earth’s vast wealth
and share this vision close at hand
through our creators great command
He walked me through the fields of grain
to show me all we must regain
so Mother Nature may provide
the Earth with what she needs to thrive
The seas above turned back to sky
The time had come to say goodbye
And count my blessings one by one
for now my journey had begun
The Guide and I would soon appear
back on the Earth I loved so dear
We both would be back on the farm
that stunning bird upon my arm
The bird would follow me that day
and join me as I knelt to pray
We now would let the whole world know
the things they need to just let go
To find the path that leads to life
they need not live by sin nor strife
They need not struggle on their own
just share the things they all have grown
11. For that great deed of giving brings
more than the wealth of all Earth’s kings
And if they live by this command
and learn to grow their food on land
they need not worry who to please
nor need they worry bout disease
For if their will to learn is great
the things they’ve lacked God will create
Strength and knowledge will ensue
for all of those who follow through
and with the tools they will possess
they’ll fix the worlds uncalled for mess
I learned to preach what I was told
to all the Earth, the young and old
The rich the poor, the proud and meek
I preached and preached till I was weak
But all along I did provide
the singing bird who was my Guide
He sang his songs and sealed the fate
of all the ones that would relate
We worked together hand in hand
we spread the word throughout the land
As others gathered all around
they learned to till and sow the ground
They thanked our Father for the day
that he had sent us on our way
to bring back hope across the land
through Man’s own Godly given Hand
