A Journey of Memory

 Electrical Impulses

We wait patiently for anyone to stroll

For as you stroll, you roll your foot forward, you roll your foot back

And some of you who feel the inkling to be more attached, will choose to leave your shoes behind

For we are inclined to feel the Electrical Impulses of you coming through

As you choose to walk in our direction

 

Connected

We lift up our arms

And for some of you who are inclined to want to climb, you choose to reach up to the nearest arm

And hoist yourselves

As you hoist yourself up to the first arm, you feel charmed, you feel connected

There is no rejection here

You choose to climb up to the next arm

 

Climb Higher

And as you climb up to the next arm, you see sights you have not seen before

And you continue to open up that door, climbing higher and higher still

And still do you have the will to go further

Our arms are strong, they hold great weight

And they attempt to anticipate your weight

As you gravitate toward your mission arm, you feel charmed you feel embraced

And as you trace your eyes across the horizon, you marvel in the beauty of what you see

 

Sight Margin

For as you sit next to the trunk, your arms reach out and embrace her

For from this location, from this Sight Margin, you can see many a different reality

Some of the realities belong long past your eyesight

Some of these of these realities exist within your eyesight

Some of these realities exist within the palm of your hand

For within the palm of your hand, as you hold on tight, you might feel a quiver or two, a sway this way and back

 

Life Span

We the Oak Trees of the Land want you to understand, our life span is beyond yours in a physical sense

But we recognize for many of you, who have choose to climb up our arms, once you choose to pass, once you choose to exit, your energetic stamp remains

 

We Remember

We the Oaks of the Land want you to understand, once you have imprinted your energy on us, we remember, we see your sight

When you remain on this side, that sliding up, the scurrying to the top, is brought with it, the heat of you

When you choose to pass, when you choose to exit, we the Oaks of the Land want you to understand, we continue to remember you

And you too choose to visit us

 

Our Goal

Your Soul enters our goal

And our goal is to have each and everyone stroll in our direction

We want you to make that connection, that physical touch

For we look forward to that touch, we look forward to that care

And we would like to declare, we the Oaks of the Land want you to understand, we chose to be here

To share our resources, to share what we have to give

 

Other Forms

Now some of you choose to have us with you in other forms

For the essence of us, is created for a purpose for you

This tends to result in us taking the brunt

For we are often cut at the floor

And even though many of you would choose to ignore what you have chosen to do, for you feel it is your right

In spite of what you consider to be your right, how will you choose to allow us, to carry on

 

Continue to Give

We the Oaks of the Land want you to understand, even though some of you choose to cut us at ground level

We continue to give

We give to the Little Ones; we give to those who are not so healthy

For we may be old, we may be no longer useful as far as something to climb, something to pull up

 

Below the Ground

But we are here to say to you, there is much more that goes on, through the ground

If only you could take yourself to the ground level, place your ear on the Earth, and listen to our movements, listen to our sounds

For we choose to continue to get around

We may look like we’re done, we may look like our life is over, but we continue to give

As we start to break down, as we start to accumulate into the ground, we change our sound

For the sound that comes through is very much like you

For as you blend, as we blend, the beat of Mother Earth is within us all

 

All the Same

The beat of Mother Earth, beats

She treats all the same

She treats all who remain on either side of the veil, for each of you have a job to do

You may see different sights

Others may see you with happiness, others may see you with sorrow

 

Veins

But we the Oaks of the Land want you to understand, the memory of you remains

It remains in the veins of others, it remains in the veins of the Earth

We the Oaks of the Land want you to understand, as we choose to give when we live and when we pass, some of you are starting to grasp that very same concept

For many of you continue to give, even though you have passed on

 

Confusing

Some who are living on this side, will confide what we have shared with you is confusing

But we are here to say to you, living or otherwise, you see the skies through different eyes, you see the Earth through different eyes

But you still hear the cries of a loved one

You still remember the memories of those that have touched you, or that you have touched them

 

New Relationship

We the Oaks of the Land want you to understand, the touch of another, we want you to discover, is a memory piece

For as you release your energy on to our skin

We begin a new relationship, we begin a new memory

See it for what it is, a connection

It’s not hard, it’s not soft

It’s what we refer to as our Communication Device with you

 

Never Forgotten

For once you place your hands on us, you are never forgotten

So, take the time be inclined, to adjust your hand from out of your pocket

And lay your hand upon our bark

And we together will embark on a journey of memory

We the Oaks of the Land want you to understand, we look forward to your visit, we look forward to your time

 

 

 

 

 

 

You Are Seen

 

Within Your Reality

The Crow sits, watching silently as she presents to thee, an issue that she sees

For the Crow is not at ease, for she sees much of what is within your reality

She sees your hopes, she sees your fears

And it would appear to be like a sheer mirror from you

All she needs to do is look in that mirror and see what she sees

 

Hide

For what she sees before each and everyone of thee, are all of what you are attempting to hide

For she sees thee deep in side

Many of your traumas, many of your fears buried deep within, you had hoped they would not be exposed

For on the nose of it, the smell test has been silenced to you

For you have attempted to bury it deep

 

Feel Intently

But the Crows do not sleep for what you have deep, they feel intently

For each one of you are exposed to the Crows

For many of them know you, deeper than you know yourself

For you have attempted to hide your shadow side

 

Steeped Tea

But the Crows are here to confide in you, you can bury your shadow side deep, but it’s like a steeped tea, it rises to the surface

You may like to ignore it, you might like to implore that it stays put, but we the Crows of the Land want you to understand, what you bury rises to the surface, when you least expect it

You do not know why you react the way you do

You cannot explain it to others

You shudder at the response, it’s quick and immediate

It’s like a trigger has been activated

And as you attempt to relate it to something, you are somewhat confused

 

Both Sides Light and Dark

We the Crows of the Land want you to understand, you have both sides to you

A Light and a dark

It’s like a split personality

You like to bring to the surface the lightness of you

But you too have a shadow side

Some of you find your shadow side competes with the Light

As in it drives the Light down

 

Flickering Ember

There are times you are down in the dumps and all you see is darkness

But a flickering ember lives within

And that flickering ember, fights to rise

For that flickering ember wants you to see the next sunrise, see the next sunset

 

Imperfection

We the Crows of the Land want you to understand, we see you through and through

Many of you see us from a dark side

Some of you see us as pests

But we attest we may not be beautiful ,we may not be colourful, but we see you through and through each side of you

We have some lessons to share with you, we have some wisdoms as well

Do not dwell in the imperfection of you

All we suggest to you is embrace all of you hook line and sinker

Embrace the good with the bad, embrace the happy with the sad, embrace what you tolerate, embrace what you cannot tolerate, embrace the joy, the laughter, the sadness the anger, embrace it all

 

Calling

Each one of you have a Calling if you’re willing to listen

We the Crows of the Land want you to understand, that Calling is deep in your Soul

If you want that Calling to have a role, you need to be able to quiet your mind let the busyness, go

For that Calling has a role

If you allow yourself to listen, if you allow yourself to embrace, it will become interlaced in your life

Some of you say but I’m a wife, I’m a husband, I’m the sole breadwinner, I’m a father, I’m a brother, I’m an uncle, I’m an aunt, I’m a mother, I’m a sister, I have an important job to do, people depend on me

So, when I try to be me, I find there is no time

 

Celebrated

We the Crows of the Land want you to understand, do not bury thee in excuses

For each of thee is meant to be celebrated

For all those who bury thee attempting to please others, they do not really get a chance to see thee

For those who are busy, for those who are determined to please, we also see thee

What part of thee do you want others to truly see, it is it the part of thee that is successful, is it the part of thee that is beautiful, is it the part of thee that is believable, is it the part of thee that is always joyful, is it the part of thee that is always giving

Are you truly living your true self

 

Fabricated

Or have you fabricated yourself

Have you dressed yourself and tied yourself in a bow

Do you want others to see you always on the go

Do you want others to say that person is so successful, that person is so rich

 

Who You Truly Are

Or do you allow certain others to see you for who you truly are, timid frightened shy

Do you rely on others to lead you

For you feel you, cannot compete

So, to complete what you believe is your incomplete nature, do you allow others to lead

Do you bleed dissatisfaction

Or are you someone who is constantly surrounded by others, and yet you feel alone

 

Alone

You my dears, are probably from the Star Zones

For even though you feel you were born of an Earthen persuasion

We are here to suggest to you, you often feel separate, you often feel different

There is a reason for that

For you are a Star Being

As in you see things differently, you see beyond the box

People often talk about how you do not conform, you do not remain a part of the norm

For you see differently from others, you feel the separateness, you feel this aloneness and yet if you allowed yourself to believe, this is what you need to achieve

For your right-sidedness your right-mindedness, is just that right for you

If you consider each feather upon each bird, is different from one species to the next

Do not be perplexed for each feather has a role to play

For each bird flies in a different pattern, each bird serves a different purpose

 

See Thee

We the Crows of the land you to understand, we watch you humans carefully

For we want you to see thee

Do not bury thee in a feeling of not meeting expectations that are set by others

Uncover the fabric of you, celebrate the fabric of you

For you are individual, but each one of you has a role to play

And in this play you have an act

So, enact your role, be who you are

Drive the car you want to drive for you

Be the vision of you that you see

For all we ask of thee is to see and live the vision of you

 

Message for You

We the Crows of the Land want you to understand, when we come in your presence, when we come closer than usual, we have a message for you

Do not shoo us away, do not display a need to proceed, another way, for today is the day

We see each of you through and through

And the message we have for you and that is for each of you, is you are perfect just the way you are

Allow your perfection to unfold, allow your perfection to be seen

For this perfection is you

 

Eye

As the Crow sits within your view, she sees you through and through

She honours you

She respects you

She loves you

So, the next time a Crows flies by, be well aware you are within her eye

This eye is no ordinary eye, for this eye sees all

You are embraced

All parts of you are seen

Allow yourself to see those parts of you, for you are not under review, you are seen

 

Diversity is the Name of the Game

 Breath

We listen to your voices, we wait for your breath

For when your breath adds to the air, we are often there

You hear a familiar buzz, you hear a familiar whine

Many of you are inclined to move away

As in you do not want to stay put

For you know if you do not show, a need to proceed away, the Mosquitoes of the Land want you to understand, meal time is any time you’re around

We like your sound, we like your breath

We like to hang around, no matter what you do

And we the Mosquitos of the Land want you to understand, we realize we’re a pest, we realize you would like to request, stay away, do not come back any day

 

Picky

When the winds really blow, we decide to go

For the is no way for us to control where we go, for the wind shows us a push or two

And we just can’t get to you

We know you’re disappointed, we know you wonder where we’ve gone

We do not belong in windy, cold conditions

We’re picky that way

But if we are here to stay on a particular day, when its warm and moist, these are the days of our choice

We don’t care for dryness, we don’t care for lack of Water

Now some of you seem to forget when you leave a pail out and the Water builds up, that’s a perfect habitat for us

So, we don’t fuss we stick around

 

Blood

We the Mosquitos of the Land want you to understand, you’re not the only ones we go after

We go after many species on the Land do you understand, we just don’t want you feeling left out

Your blood is what we’re after

We don’t take much

For if you were to touch us, you’d realize we’re really quite small

But we are here to suggest to you, in the Fall we’re pretty well gone

But in Spring this is a time we start to sing, when the weather gets warmer, but it’s still a bit wet

 

Survivors

We are here to say to you my dears we are survivors

Try, try, try as you might, we will find another way no matter how you fight

For we adapt

We adapt we adjust and that’s a must

Our flight patterns are never in a straight line

We are inclined to change it up

Our eyes sight helps thank you very much, unlike you humans our eyes are all around

 

A Chain

We realize you humans don’t care for us much, but you need to get in touch with things, there’re other species that eat us

We are just one species in a chain

If we were not to remain, that would affect other species

So, you need to get in the lane and see what that looks like, diversity is the name of the game

As one species disappear, other species do not cheer

For the loss of one, is loss of many

For we look out for each other in a manner of speaking

When one in the chain disappears for good, it has a ripple effect

You humans should know that by now

Most of you see us as a pest, most of you see us as annoying, be well aware my dears we want to make perfectly clear, if we depart so do other species that depend on us

 

Reason For Being

Each species on the face of the Earth has a reason for being

You humans maybe not seeing their reason for being, for you do not live within their reality

Unless of course you choose to study us

For those who choose to study us, you realize it takes time, you realize it take dedication

 

They are Aware of You

You, human species, may not be aware of many other species on the face of the Earth, but they’re aware of you

For many species know your presence through your scent, many species know your presence through your vibration, many species know your presence through hearing, through sight, through might, through telepathic communication, with others

Many species share, they declare guess who’s in town

 

Nothing Personal

Perhaps it’s a good idea if you don’t stick around

Now some of us choose to stand our ground, whether you humans choose to stick around for we are just that way

Now some species choose to blend in, step into the background

Some species choose to stand up and be annoying

For we the Mosquitos of the Land want you to understand, it’s nothing personal it’s the job that we need to do

For biting you has to do with our survival

 

Memorable

We realize you’re not just annoyed by the sound, you’re not just annoyed by the bite, you are also annoyed by the leftover effect, the itch

You might say we are memorable

 

A Chunk

Now we Mosquitos are a bit bossy, we mosquitos are a bit particular, but the temperature has to be right so does the wind

So does the moisture do you get the picture

We’re fussy bunch

But you have a hunch it doesn’t seem to matter

For there are days that you could display the fact that we have taken a chunk just too much

 

Remembered

We know you want to forget us, we know you want to pretend we’re not there

We will not disappoint you we will show up we will bring our entire family with us

For we try not to disappoint

For we must anoint you, so we will be remembered

 Add us to your stories add us to your memories

We don’t want to be forgotten

 

Story About You

Is that a Mosquito tale or is that a tall tale

We avail ourselves for what ever tale you choose to tell

Spread the wealth let it grow

For who knows perhaps we too will have a story about you

 

 

We Are One

 Unfolding

We alight on the petal, we alight on the bud

Too early

We need to wait

We need to anticipate the unfolding

For it is with the unfolding, our job begins

Perhaps tomorrow will be the day

Well anyway, we will wait for another day

 

Concealed

Some of us live nearby you

Some of us are in hollowed out trees, some of us are behind the sheathing of your house, some of us accumulate below the ground

Some of us you know when we’re around, by our sound

We try to stay concealed, we try to stay out of your minds-eye

 

Work

But by and by when the sun comes out and the flowers burst forth

We go to work

From flower to flower, from tree to tree

You see, we know we have an important job to do

 

Drop

Now just like you we get thirsty

We alight on a blade of grass

Will we be fortunate or will we gasp

For upon the grass there is a leftover drop

We inhale it, we cannot stop

 

Defend

Now you are brought up to view us, with fear

We the Bees of the Land want you to understand, we have a job to do

That’s what we do

We’re really not all that interested in you, for we go about our business, we know the name of the game

But just the same if you choose to come too close, if you choose to come within our vicinity, we too will choose to protect ourselves

No, it is not an attack, for that is not what we do

We choose to defend

 

Consume

For at the end of the day we have a job to display

And anyway, you can thank us later

For our labours help you to do, what you do

And much of what we do affects what you are able to do, and that is eat and that is consume

 

Labour of Love

Within our hives, we strive to produce food for us

Now for some of you who choose to enter the hive, to receive the Golden Nectar from inside

You too choose to complete the neatly packed Golden Syrup

That is no ordinary Golden Syrup, it is a Labour of Love

For that Labour Love has protection qualities

As you ingest, its always for the best

Some of you choose to ingest on your toast

Some of you choose to boast its addition to a remedy or two

For you are convinced it helps you to feel better

 

A Necessity

Just like some of you, we too protect our Queen

For it would seem she is a necessity

For within the hive if we are to strive to have a chance of survival, protecting the Queen at all costs, is not lost on any of us

For the hive works together

It is like One Mind

We are the kind to communicate through to each member of the hive, so we can strive to continue to survive, no matter what is thrown in our direction

 

Truce

We the Bees of the Land want you all humans to understand, what you put on the Land affects us all

We are calling for a truce

For if we are to continue to be of any use, our numbers need to increase

For at this point our numbers continue to decrease

For those of you who are not close to the Bee population, who do not notice the connection between the Earth and us, who do not notice the connection between what you eat and what gets completed within the Plant Cycle, we are here to say, you should all be dismayed

For what is presently being displayed upon the Land, we want you to understand, is detrimental to all

 

Spread Around

We call on all farmers the large and the small, think of your practices do they stay local or do they spread around

If you no longer hear the buzzing sound, what does that mean

Some of you feel it in your spleen, some of you feel it in your gut

There’s a concern there, a deep fear

We the Bees of the Land want you to understand, if we could write in the sky we would, if we could write on the Earth we would

If we could right a might, that is more powerful than us, we would

 

Warning Sign

We rely on the voices of others

To discover a warning sign

Be inclined to see the sign, also be inclined to step up to the plate

Also, be inclined to integrate all of the messages that have come as of late and ensure that you are not too late

Many species speak to us

Whether they’re close by or far away

For they are also here to say, what happens to us, affects them as well

Many species learn to adapt some do not

 

It’s About You

We the Bees of the Land want you to understand, we see the future, we know the past

We like you, want to last as long as we can

Now this lasting for us is not about us, it is about you

For we sacrifice ourselves for you

So be the future, know what that means

For the scenes you see today, will not display the scenes without the Bee, don’t you see

Allow the Bee to be your future

To Bee or not to Bee that is the question

Do you have an answer, do you see the future

 

Ripple Effect

The Bees wait for your answer, the Bees wait for you to take a stand

It’s all about the Land, it’s all about you

All we ask of you is to stand up for the Land, stand up for the Bees

For if you stand up for the Bees, you will soon see it has a Ripple effect

 

Changes in Your Reality

We the Bees of the Land want you to understand, we see the changes in your reality, do you

We also see what you will choose to do

Blessed are you, blessed are the Bees, don’t you see

Each of you are all part of the We

And We are One

 

 

 

The Door is Waiting for You to Learn to Explore

 Footprints

We see thee, as you cross the snow

We see where your footprints go

Your boots are large and clumsy

You’re not careful, you proceed without fear

There are times you smear your tracks, not fearing to attract attention

When you stop you look different ways, you’re casual in a way

There are many days you pay little attention to what is around you

 

Sounds

For your head is surrounded by sounds, sounds that do not belong in nature

For they are sounds of song, sounds of music

We on the other hand belong in an alternate reality, for our footprints are careful, our footprints are calculated

We are well aware we share our presence with others

Our ears are large, our feet are relatively small

We listen intently to calls, to footfalls

When we stop it is abrupt, it is like we’re frozen

We attempt to blend in

Our ears twitch this way and that

 

Attack

We wait for signs of attack

Could it be from across the ground, could it be from the air by the mere sound, could it be up through the snow with a pounce and a go

 

Careful

We the Hares of the Land want you to understand, we are careful in our movements, we are careful with our signs

For we are inclined to use all forms of adaptability we have at our toeprints

For as we are well aware our footprints show who we are, whether we’re large or small

Our footprints also tell are we hopping slowly, are we moving with great speed

Our footprints also tell when we stop

As well when we turn this way and that

We are well aware of the fact that those of you who have a strong sense of smell, can dwell in the scent of us

Some of you use your eyesight and that’s when we try to blend in

Some of you use your sheer might

 

Movement

We the Hares of the Land want you to understand, we can travel quickly if the need arises

We can cut corners, we can change direction

And we can leap

Some would complete that leaping in saying it is a mere long hop

We the Hares of the Land want you to understand, we don’t care what you call it

We will use what ever is at our disposal to escape

As we sit on the Landscape attempting to blend in, we use all our senses

 

Signature Message

And we wait patiently for a Signature Message

For others of our species, tend to warn us when the need arises

We look for a hiding spot, we look to blend in

And we are here to say to you, we find a way to adapt

When the days get cold and the nights get long, we sing a different song, we find a place to be

 

Protected

To be covered ,to be protected

As the snow falls and our footprints appear, we begin to see it is clear, we must by necessity find something to eat

Bark the thinner the better, is our way of feeling much better

Our choice of moisture comes from plants

Some of us enhance that from a stream nearby

 

Survivors

We are survivors just wait and see

And when we get together, we produce a large family

The larger the better for us all together

For we are wanting to continue to make our Ancestors proud

For we may not be a loud species, we may not want to stand out

 

Senses

But as we see you walking across the Land, we want you to understand, there are many senses you hardly use

For some of those senses are being abused

The music you listen to is far too loud, many of you want to be a part of the crowd

Same

Being a part of the crowd is like us wanting to blend in

You want to be same; you want to be recognized as the same

Is the same being in your own lane

Or is it just a way for them to say, hey you’re okay

 

Wisdoms

We the Hares of the Land want you to understand, don’t attempt to blend in and leave you behind

For you are the kind to carry with you many wisdoms of your own

And you alone know what those wisdoms are

The next time you walk across the Land, use all your senses and search and more

 

Explore

Explore like a child touch as you go

And know that everything you see is new

It is the newness of spring, it is the newness of new life

For although you may think you have seen this picture before, explore

So, you will be able to see so much more

Turn off your music, turn off the need to blend in

And be happy to be you, yes all of you

 

Do You See

Look at the footprints on the ground, do you hear the sound that goes with them

Can you see where they are going and where they have come from

Do you see how quickly they move

Do you see the direction they are going in to

Do you see the evidence that they stop for a bit

Where do they sleep, what do they eat

Can all this information be found in one complete footprint, no

Follow those footprints, see where they go

Explore

The door to Exploration is there before you

 

Your Body

All you need to do is walk through that door, venture further

We the Hares of the Land want you to understand, there are times your body tells you more than your senses do

There are times the hair on the back of your neck, sends fear through you

There are times you have a knowing, you have sense

There are times you dive to the ground, there are times you pull yourself back

There are times you go forward, only to turn back

We the Sky People are here to say to you, yes you have many senses

Yes, your body tells you things

 

Our Messages

But we do too

Our messages come to you in a variety of ways

Some of you may consider it intuition

Some of you may feel it in your gut

Some of you feel a nudge, some of you feel a pressure

Some of you have what you might refer to as an aha moment

Some of you feel persuaded to change your direction

Some of you slow down for no apparent reason

Some of you feel you need to stay longer you know not why

 

Safe

We the Sky People we your Ancestors try, try, try again, to keep you safe

Some of you can’t help yourself, for you feel you’re always in charge

There are times you are, there are times you are far from it

So, we the Hares of the Land want you to understand, you each have many gifts

All we suggest of you is to learn how to unwrap those gifts, and put them to the best use

 

Gifts

We the Hares of the Land want you to understand, we too each have a gift, that makes us individuals, but part of a family

But as part of a family, we choose to share

We declare that we will share for the betterment of all

Some suggest it’s only the survival of the fittest

We the Hares of the Land want you to understand, it’s not necessarily how fit you are, it is more to do with, how you use your gifts

And how you can blend with your family to share your gifts

 

Offer

Not all families understand each individual gifts

All you can do is offer or invite

We the Hares of the Land want you to understand, there times in spite of all your efforts, in spite of all your trials, you will receive smiles but you will also receive doubts

Blinded

We the Hares of the Land want you to understand, those who doubt you, judge you through their eyes

They do not see what you see, they do not sense what you sense, they do not hear what you hear

It would appear they are blinded to the sight that you see through all your senses

That is their blindness not yours

So, take up your oar, row at the speed you can

And plan your course explore

For the door is waiting for you to learn to explore
