Ode To A Planet
Look at the wind
it moves for you
with the sun and stars and moon
a life begins anew
take their omnipresent presence
then breathe it deep dear child
let it be your essence
let them sculpt your soul
be wild be free be daring
neither young nor old
dance together into the night
feel the grace, the gift, the light
no time is free from reasons
caught up in mortal toil
be the strength of seasons
a mystic natural
sing the tune of free birds
sailing high above
a picture painted paradise
a place to be and love
