Love and Compassion for Everyone
A song fell out of my mouth a few weeks ago – words and a melody. It’s been tweaked, sung a hundred times into my phone voice recorder, shared with a few friends and even more tweaking.
Next week Keith, a superb musician/composer and I get together to see if we can take it to the next level. It’s based on my Well ‘n’ Happy practice of Wishing Well and Happy (read Compassion and Love) to self, someone close to you, all humans, all beings and this gorgeous planet we live on.
Here’s a peek into the song Love and Compassion for Everyone.
Chorus
Love and compassion for mother earth
Love and compassion for all beings
Love and compassion for everyone
Love and compassion for you and me
Love and compassion for myself
Verse 1
I want to be free it’s my destiny
Come play with me for eternity
I want to awaken and truly shine
Or I”ll never know what it is to grow
Love and compassion for myself
Love and compassion for myself
For myself
For myself
Verse 2
You and I may never say goodbye
We’ve come to rely on the care we share
Let’s be open and free to be
Creating magical realities
Love and compassion for you and me
Love and compassion for you and me
You and me
You and me
Verse 3
We live on this earth seven billion we are
We’ve come so far on this gorgeous planet
We need to wake up to the damage we’ve done
Or there’ll be nowhere to run and there’ll be no fun
Love and compassion for everyone
Love and compassion for everyone
Everyone
Everyone
Verse 4
Dragonflies and kangaroos want to live in harmony
Can’t you see the whales in goal
The lamb and the fish why do we eat?
Our humanity yet to be complete
It’s up to us to be kind and fair
For all the animals are in our care
Love and compassion for all beings
Love and compassion for all beings
All beings
All beings
Verse 5
Keep the oil in the soil, the trees growing strong
For Gaia is our Mother Earth, she’s home to everyone
The rivers are her blood, rocks and stones her bones
Her tears fill the oceans for what we’ve done
It’s a crying shame our killing game
It’s time to grow up and become sane
Love and compassion for mother earth
Love and compassion for mother Earth
Love and compassion for myself
Love and compassion for you and me
Love and compassion for everyone
Love and compassion for all beings
Love and compassion for mother earth, mother earth, mother earth
The song fell out of my mouth and onto the page during the time of the full moon in Masteron, NZ May 2017
