Music for Your Spacecraft
The Sun
The moonlight softly giving way,
the s has brought another day.
The foggy haze which lines the ground
in silken swirls as soft as down,
begins to fade as light appears,
and falls to earth like tiny tears.
Our world awakens in the presence
of it’s sun.
It’s rays are blinding when the day
has just begun.
A lonely bird will sing his song
soon multitudes will join along.
The grass so tall, within it dwells
a world whose sound begins to swell.
Evoking feelings so serene,
almost dreamlike is this scene.
Our world oblivious
to feelings of this kind.
No longer thinking of
the higher things in life.
The early risers in their race,
who never see at such a pace,
travel by without a glance,
never notice life’s romance.
I sit alone to be as one
with nature, worshipping the sun.
The sun so wonderful
the giver of all life.
It’s warmth as bountiful
and joyous as it’s light.
High Above
High above
the birds fly circles,
the treetops calling them.
Waving in the breezy air,
their motion comforting.
Down below
the forrest rings with
every living creature
singing of his life and freedom,
a song we used to know
Where went the innocence
which gave us dignity?
The child remembers,
but can not tell.
We’ve lost humanity.
We’ve lost the meaning of our lives.
We came so close to knowing the truth
of our world.
Look around
and see the people
so lost in ignorance.
Doing things for selfish reasons
in hateful dissonance.
Live your life
an open one,
with empathy.
Generous to all you meet,
embrace humanity.
Where went the innocence
which gave us dignity?
The child remembers,
but can not tell.
We’ve lost humanity.
We’ve lost the meaning of our lives.
We came so close to knowing the truth
of our world.
