Children of the Earth

 You Feel the Earth

We wipe the ground across your brow

And somehow you feel the Earth

For the Earth sings for thee

 

Medicines

Receive the Plant Medicines

For they are for thee

 

You Belong

You shimmer in the dark

Your stark character is cast out

And then just as you are about to ask why

We the Sky People embrace you

As well the Feathered Ones sing out their songs

They want you to know you belong

Yes, my dears they sing out their songs to you and you so you too know that you belong

You belong in the Song of Mother Earth

 

Your Shadow

The gift of your selfhood is recognized always

You may think you all look the same to us

But do not fuss a moment longer

For we the Sky People we see you as individuals; we see you on mass

For as you cast your shadow on the Earth

Be well aware we Earthen Spirits are there

 

Earthen Soul

The Child among us speaks through you

This child we refer to is the Child of Birth

This Child of Birth is an Earthen Soul

 

Enlighten You

But be well aware this Child of Birth, as an Earthen Soul, it is their goal to enlighten you to see through the haze

As in lift up your heart in those sorrowful days

And pull away the veil

So, there will become a day when you see no difference between the world you are a part of and the world we are within

 

Pursue Change

We the Children of the Earth

(Dokee nama kanama) Call out to each and every one of you

Please pursue change

We beg of you

 

Our Future

For we see our future, beyond yours

We are preparing an Arc so to speak

For within that Arc, we will welcome all

For we feel there will be a time for us to depart from where we are

And look for higher ground

Yes, my dears we hear the sound of the beat

We hear the Earth calling on the street

 

Puzzled Gaze

Now you may meet us with a puzzled gaze

For you seem amazed at what we know

For you my dears, have been sold a bill of goods

For we Children of the Earth were birthed with Wisdoms, were birthed with Knowledges

Beyond your comprehension, beyond your sight

Yes, my dears we invite you to learn from us

For there are many knowledges that we carry

And the weight is heavy on our shoulders

All we ask of you, is to pursue to lighten our load

 

A Tune

Sing a tune in your mind of minds

And this tune my dear is in tune with Mother Earth

For despite her girth, she too is all knowledgeable

For the Children of the Earth are in sync

Their knowledges are deep, their Earthen Wisdoms are there

And if you ask them, they will share what they know

But they bare a heavy weight

Therefore, my dears we want to make it perfectly clear, don’t leave it until it’s too late

For the Children of Earth anticipate what’s coming

 

They Understand

Listen to the laughter; listen to the song

Listen to the splashes they too belong

Sing for the joy of it, dance to a tune

For my dears we the Sky People want to make it perfectly clear

Those who carry a Childlike Spirit they understand

For they are close to the land; they are close to the pattern of the land

Do you understand

 

Just Be

Create a picture, roll down a hill

Sing until you no longer have a voice

Dance your pants off

Enhance your life, explore

And explore for there is so much to know, there is so much to learn

And earn the right to be childlike

No matter how you see your age to be

Just be

And start to see what those Childlike Entities see

For you too were a child once

 

Smile

Walk with your head down; walk with your head up

Breathe in a long breath

What do you smell; what do you sense

No, these senses aren’t in the past tense; you just haven’t used them in a while

Turn up your lips and smile

And walk a mile, just because

Skip a stone, stand alone

Go to your imaginary zone, and stay there awhile

And then smile

 

A World That You Remember

Get out of your important self

And be led by that childlike self

Hide, look for another

And you will discover a world that you remember

For you are beginning to see it from another view

And that view my dears, yes, you can shed a tear

Is the view of the child within you

Therefore, my dears we want to make it perfectly clear

When you see those children standing up in a strong belief

Listen to what they have to say

For they are the Children of Today, they are the Leaders of Tomorrow

 

Listen

You can borrow their insight, you can borrow their energy

But in spite of that insight, in spite of that energy, they too carry through many wisdoms to you

All you need to do is listen

For they know what they’re talking about

This is not a fanciful world they live in

They see the future; they see the past

And the present they see has a habit of casting a long shadow to the future

 

Change of View

Change the present, change your ways

And the future will no longer be tied to you

For a change of view will be enlightening

And the Children of the Earth look to you

 

Look to You

The Children of the Earth look to you

Open up your view and become that child once again

And again

There it is, you can see it now

You can hear it, you can smell it, you can touch it, you can know it, you can remember it

It is you; you, are it

 

Do You Have a Plan

Now instead of being a child of the past, cast your eyes to the future

Future, yes you can do it, there it is

Now you see what we mean

Yes, are you seeing what we’re seeing

You are, aha now you know the Wisdoms of the Day

Stay a while enjoy the view, stay a while smile with us

Now, now, that you’re with us, now that you understand

Do you have a plan

We hope so

 

A Song of Belonging

We look to the future, we look to you

Yes you

All of you, our parents, our grandparents, and those beyond

Yes, my dears, we want to make it perfectly clear, this song that we ‘re singing will continue

Now we realize that many of you see it as a protest

It’s not a protest, it’s a song of belonging, a song of reality

Therefore, my dears we want to make it perfectly clear, we will stick with this song until you all belong in this same light as us

It’s not hard to sing, you can do it too

And you

 

The Song of Childhood

The Earth hears you call out loud

 She too is part of the crowd

And as part of the crowd, she waits in silence; she waits in anticipation

And she too sings the Song of the Childhood

It’s gentle, it’s touching

And yet it’s over reaching; it’s exploratory

It’s fun loving, it’s joyful

Therefore, we the Sky People would suggest

Join this tune, join this choir

For Mother Earth and the Children of the Earth invite you to join

So, you too feel like you belong

In the song of Mother Earth
