Whalesong
A spirit
of the open sea
Did hear
the Whale and turned to me
"Why
does The Keeper sound so sad?
Is earthen
news that comes so bad?"
We glanced
upon the sandy shore
Where earthen
humans stood galore
The weakened
childs of Adam and Eve
Born of
the newness nature weaved
We travelled
with the mists of time
To where
our past was caught in rhyme
And forest
totems stood around
Great stones
from within the ground
For this
is Master Elk's old home
Far from
human's city drone
We asked
him what was meant to be
And this
is what he said to me:
"Our
future lies within the past
For this
is where our lives were cast
So listen
for the lessons found
from in
mistakes upon this ground."
Now
we will go towards the ends
To lead
the children of Earth's old friends
Away to
a better time and day
Where the
young can laugh and play
There is
no need to go to war
And become
like those who went before
Endeavouring
to change the past
A better
future is what we ask.
