We Want Things to Show Their True Selves

 We Plan on Being Here

We the Bees of the Land want you all to understand, we have an important role to play

We the Bees of the Land want you to understand, we plan on being here as long as we can

But we want you to understand, you too have a role to play

 

Reexamine Your Path

And your role, is in some ways to stay away

By staying away, we are suggesting to you, there are times you need to, take a step back, reexamine your path

For there are times you are inclined, to be blinded by what you think you see

For we the Bees of the Land want you to understand, each and every thing you add to the Land, affects the All

It affects the Plant Species, it affects the Animal Species, it affects the Insects, it affects the Land, it affects the Water, do you understand

 

Others Disappear

As your footprint grows, others disappear

You my dears, it does appear, need to take a step back, need to reexamine your ways

We the Bees of the Land, are here to say, reexamine your ways, shorten your footprint

Now many of you will say that is fine for you Bees to say that upon this day, but the question we ask is how

 

First Peoples

We the Bees of the Land want you to understand, ask the First Peoples of the Land, for they always had a plan

They carried with them, a partnership so to speak

And within this partnership, they would peak forward, step back

It was not from a lack of knowledge, it was from a tentative step, they were not rushed

For it is in the rushing, that mankind is brushing all

Stall Progress

We are suggesting to you, stall your progress

We are not saying stop, we are saying stall

 And by stall, we are suggesting that you look for natural alternatives, for there are many

All you need to do is, be prepared to ask

The Wisdom has always been there, you just did not see as such

For you thought you knew it all, you thought you had the best way

 

Not Too Late

We the Bees of the Land are here to suggest, that you have much more to understand

For as your footprint increases in size upon the Land, much that presently lives on the Land, will begin to disappear

We are here to say to you, it is not too late

But we are suggesting to you, that you gravitate toward another path

And this path is about respect, and this path is about understanding the linkages between what you do and don’t do

For every step you take, you can anticipate is a step forward, and a step back

 

Review

We the Bees of the Land want you to understand, we are not attacking all of what you do, we are just suggesting that you review your practices, look at their results

And if the results are resulting in the decline in a certain population that you need, you need to proceed to ask why

For we the Sky People see all the good, the bad, the misguided

 

Look Cyclically

We the Sky People are here to say to you, just because you see things horizontally and sometimes vertically, it is time for you to look cyclically

For your actions create reactions, where ever you go

And what they show, you need to pay attention to

 

Understand Our Role

We the Bees of the Land, want you to understand, we understand our role, do you

We see thee in flight

We see thee on the ground; we hear your repetitive sound

Yes, we know when you’re around

We feel the rain on our backs

We feel the buffeting winds

And when it is time for us to hide, we abide by that knowledge, we abide by that time

 

Lose Our Way

But there are times we can not save ourselves, there are times we lose our way

We the Bees of the Land want you to understand, your role is most important

But we are also here to say, we may be small, but we have a major role to play

Therefore, my dears we the Bees of the Land, want you to understand, you need to understand in order for us to do what we do, the best way we know how

We need you to review your practices, stop some and learn more

We implore you to go in this direction

 

Deep Connection

As Species of the Land, we want you to understand, what a deep connection we have

Now as Earthen Folks, we want to poke you into awareness

Think of what things would look like without us

If you find you do not like that reality, choose to not make it so

For we the Bees of the Land, want you to understand, we know our role, we know our place

All we need to do, is be allowed to do what we are meant to do

 

 Received

Bees sing in great delight

And they are pulled to light, pulled to the warmth, pulled to the colour

They see blossoms like none other

Scent is everywhere

It floats through the air, it is received

 

Like You

We like you, need a place to stay

We like you, need a place to lay

We like you, need to follow our path

We like you, need help from others

And if you help us, you will discover it will be a great plus, for our future and yours

 

Observe

When you see us, don’t run in fright

Instead, you might just observe

And as you observe, perhaps you’ll learn something new

We the Bees of the Land, all we ask of you is, please allow us to do what we do

We will not get in your way, we are here to say, we want things to grow, we want things to show their true selves

We have a role to play, let us play it
