Red and yellow blue and green
A rainbow passing by
A message filled with hope and love
We may be asking why
Some things happen that make us sad
Some things we don’t know
We think that we can change it
And learn to  go with the flow
It’s not about the good and bad
It’s not about the dark
But maybe about how we can
Just light a little spark
Things happen in this world of ours
Feels like we’re passing through
It’s about how we react to life
And use the things we knew
You can accept you can fight
You can sit and cry
You can react with all your might
Or just let things pass by
If you can just accept your fate
And grow with faith and love
Then happiness will follow
All that you are dreaming of

Tea or coffee coffee or tea
Do I want to wake up or do I want to sleep
I’m looking around the world has changed
People are lying and appear deranged
I wonder when people fell asleep
When they stopped making choices and became like sheep
Wake up wake up I want to say
It’s a time for work not a time for play
Things are urgently needing our attention right now
There are things in this world we can’t allow
Look at the ones who are making the choices
The laws are crazy lift up your voices
What do you want what will you say
We can’t wait for tomorrow this is the day
To get involved in this scheme of life
You can’t complain and remain a low life
Rise up to the cause rise up to be true
The only one that can change the world is you

Mask and vaccine what’s the take
Looks like the world now needs a break
Everything was closed down tight
We called out government with all our might
It’s hard to understand what this is about
We scream and yell and some of us pout
We hold marches and drive to the capital city
The Americans joined in, now that’s a pity
We just want our freedom, ability to choose
If we’re all corralled in then all of us loose
Vaccine and mask should be a choice
And yet we punish those who have a voice
I’m getting older and wiser than most
That is the reason for this post
The more rules the harder it is to be real
It’s not appropriate to make us heel
So rule makers listen we want you to hear
The end of the world could possibly be near
The rule that we need, the most important of all
Is to be gentle with others and heed the call
Of a higher power, the creator of all
If we could only listen we wouldn’t feel small
Be kind to others; treat all as your own
Step gently on the earth and set the tone
Set the inner boundaries that make you true
To yourself be authentic and be your best you

We have a name
That tells us all
That we are meant to be
And yet that name is given
By the ones that we can’t see
We take the name
And make it ours
We hold onto it tight
We think that we are all of that
We think that this is right
And if we were to question
What that name now means to us
We might find that we'd query
And put up a little fuss
Imagine if that name we hold
Could be a choice of ours
What would you call yourself
Would you reach out for the stars
Or keep the one that’s given you
Hoping you grow inside
Do you live your life by others choice
Do you go along for the ride
If you could choose another name what do you think it be
Would it stay the same or take a change
Rename yourself with glee
If I could make a little change
I’d think on what to do
For changing out our proper name
Our self we would renew

*** that sounds so good
Let’s go out now and buy
A steak a pizza a hamburger
Appetites reach for the sky
We think we’re hungry
We like to taste
The food is wonderful
Can’t let it waste
And so we hunger
And so we hide
We get much bigger
We’re growing wide
And still we want
Just more and more
We fill our pantries
And run to the store
We never fill
That empty void
We keep on eating
And get annoyed
Our doctors tell us
It must stop
We tell him not
To be a cop
We hang on to
Our sugary treats
Nothing can get past
What we eat
And suddenly one day
We start to feel
A little anxious
And start to reel
And realize that
The food we eat
Is making us sick
It’s not a treat
But poison yummies
Which we detect
Our bodies soon
Feel the effect
And suddenly
We understand
These very wise words
Which we command
We eat to live
Not live to eat
Once we get that
Our health complete

The TV is on
What should I do
I want to watch programs
And I want to play too
It’s so easy to get caught
In the TV’s  hypnosis
When I should really be dealing
With life’s gnosis
TV was invented
To bring us some joy
But instead it’s turned into
An adult’s game toy
If I go out get some air
If I take a walk around
Then my health will improve
And I’ll lose a few pounds
And the TV still calls me
With it’s junk food and rest
I think that I’m now
Taking a real life test
What will I choose
What will I let go
The walk is real
The TV is faux

Today
I will be more than I was before
I came into a world
That was created
By others before me
And
I entered
Not knowing
Wanting to learn
Wanting to be more
I have learned
That
To make the world a better place
Begins with me
If I can remember
To always leave things
Better than I have found them
Then
I have learnt
The lesson
Of life
Please
Tread softly on the Earth
