The Light is Within You

 Greater Health all Round

Nibble, nibble, munch, munch

We like to nibble on a tree, here and there

But our meal, does not stop there

For we must declare, we like the variety

We want you to understand, we don’t just get our food from the Land, we also take our food from, below the surface of the water

We see within the variety, there’s greater health all round

 

Wack

Now some of you hear our sound of alert, WACK

Now some of you who are not as aware as others, interpret that, as a form of attack

We on the other hand, are here to say to you, we have no interest in attacking you

For let’s review, we have much work to do

Each and every day we tend to display our prowess

 

Messages

For each day, we look upon the Water, each day, we look upon the Land

And each place Water and Land, we want you to understand, sends messages through

There are days the Water is high, there are days the Water is low

But we are here to let you know, the level of the Water is important to us

For we live in both environments

 

 

Swim Through the Doorway

We build our house at the edge of the Water, for we are here to say to each of you, we like to swim through the doorway

But hey, that is not our only entrance, that is not our only exit, for we have learned along the way, it is important to be prepared

We are here to say to you, we use the Water for transport, we use the Water to help to carry what we cannot possibly carry, by ourselves

 

Weight

It holds up weight

We are here to say to you; we anticipate the amount of weight, the Water will carry

But we also marry the Land with the Water, for we have learned a thing or two along the way, as we choose to weave our way from one side of the Land, to the other

Logs and sticks, are betwixt and between

We also add to that the Land, the stickier the better

 

A Flow

Now we are not here to say, we ever upon any day, want to completely stop the Water, that is not our plan

We want to slow the Water down

For we have found that once the Water slows down, it starts to get deeper

But we are also here to say, it is important there is a certain flow, upon each and every day

It’s all about pressure

If we were to fully stop the Water, the pressure would increase and the dam would release

Therefore, we are here to say to you, we understand this

Now as far as dams go, we allow a certain flow

For the Water behind, it is kind to allow it to flow, for as many species go, the movement of Water is important

For without movement there is stagnation

 

Web of Life

We the Beavers of the Land want you to understand, we know our role

We are here to say to you, we are not there just for ourselves, just for our own way of doing things

We are there for many other species

For when there is depth in the river, when there is a certain hold back, it tends to attract many other species, other than us

We create a different Web of Life

For with depth and movement, other species choose to join forces

 

Trees

Now we understand if some of you look at your forest, look at your trees

And say please, please, please move, somewhere else

We are here to say to you, we tend to choose certain trees

For certain trees are more likely to add strength, at the length of it

 

Generations

Now we are a patient lot, we have brought up many of our generations this way

And we are here to say, we are very family oriented, we are highly protective

And our objective is to allow other species to flourish, as well as us

When our numbers become too great, we are here to suggest to you, we migrate

We migrate to provide other opportunities, for more species to flourish

 

Food

We the Beavers of the Land want you to understand, we know our role

We are well aware, there are certain species that choose to come in our direction, for food

Some of us choose to sacrifice ourselves, for that fact

Others not so much, for we are a protective lot

And when cornered you need to watch out

Now we have fine-tuned our hearing

 

Movement

For as we enter the Water, as we move slowly across the Land, we want you to understand our movement is different

In the Water it’s smooth, in the Water it’s fluid

On the Land we want you to understand, we move differently, we move carefully

We are constantly listening, we are constantly feeling the rhythm

For the Earth sends through her messages

We have learned to listen, we have learned to communicate

 

Inconvenient

We are here to suggest to all humans who feel as though they have been inconvenienced by our presence, in essence you have inconvenienced us

Have you ever thought about that

It is a matter of give and take

Our predators take

We want you to understand, we give to the Land, we give to the Water

You on the other hand, like to have the Land give to you, like to have the Water give to you

What are you doing for the Land, what are you doing for the Water, what is your gift to them

 

Gifts we Give

We the Beavers of the Land we want you to understand, the gifts we give to the Earth, the gifts we give to the Water, we are here to suggest to you, we give them wholeheartedly

We do it out of respect

Along the way, you humans will learn eventually if you regret or if you neglect to show respect to the Land, respect to the Water, the Land listens, so does the Water

The Land remembers, so does the Water

 

Give and Take

So, we the Beavers of the Land want you to understand, it’s a give and take not just a take, take, take

Now we the Beavers of the Land want you to understand, each one of you has a gift, each one of you is a gift

 

Wealth

Learn what those gifts are, and spread your wealth

We’re not talking about money here, for within the natural Environment money does not pass hands

But all species on the Land, understand the importance of give and take

It’s what you might relate to, as the Barter System

What we can do for another, you will discover, is often returned

So, we the Beavers of the Land want you to understand, think of your gift, how does your gift lift others up

Do you use your gift to give, or do you use your gift to receive, or is it a bit of both

 

Planet Earth

We the Beavers of the Land want you to understand, your gifts may relate to the Land, your gifts may relate to the Water, your gifts may relate to other understandings

But we are here to say to you, without Land, without Water, where will any of you be

We’re not talking about ownership now

What we are referring to is Planet Earth

We all live on the same Planet

We need to learn to, share our respect

And not expect a return

If a return comes your way, accept it graciously

So do you see

 

Vibrate

We the Beavers of the Land want you to understand, we watch on the sidelines, we listen as well

We hear your shells vibrate,

For we are here to suggest to you, you don’t need to say a word for us to be aware of you

For each of you, vibrate

Each vibration is telltale, each vibration tells a story

 

Story

Your story is known, long before you arrive

Is this a story you want to be told

Or do you want to hold it hidden, or do you want to hold it for a special few

For we see you, we know of your presence

In essence you are known

 

Vibrational Zone

You are known through your Vibrational Zone

As are all species on Earth

For each one vibrates differently

From the large to the small, from the massive to the minute

Each one is astute, in their own special way

And we are here to say to you, we don’t need to know your name, we already know your Vibrational Signature

So, vibrate away and we will recognize you, each and every day

 

Spread Your Light

We the Beavers of the Land want you to understand, some people want to pull you down, some people want to take away your habitat, some people want it all to themselves

We are here to say to each and every one of you, you have the ability, you have the right, to do what, spread your Light

For your Light has a vibration, like none other

And your Light has the ability to lift up others

And when you lift up others, you will discover, a following of sorts

For those that feel lifted, spread a different vibration

And this is a Lifted Vibration

 

You Can Find a Way

So, we the Beavers of the Land want you to understand, your vibration counts for a lot

Some of you choose to spread it in the dark, some of you choose to spread it in the shadows

Light is needed everywhere

Some of you may declare, I don’t know how, I wish I did

We the Beavers of the Land want you to understand, you can find a way, it doesn’t need to be big

It could be asking another how you can help, it could be just listening without judgement, it could be sharing what you have, it could be declaring you see another, it could be declaring you see the goodness in another, it could be as simple as a smile it could be as simple as an uplifting comment, just one

All of this Light spun together, weaves a Blanket of love

This Blanket of Love is uplifting

 

Be a Thread

So be a thread in the Blanket of Love, allow your Light to flow

And go forth carrying your Light, spreading your Light

For you are the Light, the Light is within you
