I will take you there

lossnaturemusicpoliticsmemorytime

I will take you there

It will be a better place

Free from doubt and pain

Where tall trees sing,

Swing together

In harmony.

Grass will grow greener

The crops will be bountiful and plenty

The rivers will run freely

With no encumbrance

Placed upon their journey

To the sea

A place for children and their elders

A place for you and me

To pass our days

In peace and harmony

Never worried about our futures

Sleeping peacefully in our beds

Never to be afeared…

Of the greed of man

The lure of avarice

The absence of generosity.

Do unto others

As you would have them do unto you

From wherever they may hail

Goodwill is a virtue

We could all embrace

Before we misconstrue

The actions of a stranger

Remember,

Danger turns a blind eye

Towards those, we think we know.

Blood is blood

Friendship is a choice

Listen to the smallest voice

Death is carried in a whisper

Behind closed doors

How green is my naivety

To dream of Albion, grace and beauty

When so many hold to the belief

That what they have is theirs

And what you have

Is more than you deserve.
