These lyrics, evoking variations on a Somewhere Over The Rainbow sad love theme, were written for the residents of Thermos On The Thames Condominiums, reorganizing our HOA around deeply reconnecting, cooperatively owned themes drawn from sacred spacious sacramental space incorporating an indigenously wise tradition place to practice EarthMother healthcare history of deep river flowing muse fusion mystery place.

Somewhere over Thames River
condo fees fly high,
So do taxes
and maintenance expenses,
My
Oh my
Oh why?

We chose to co-invest
in this former industrial mess,
I must confess
I don't know why
except our windows
reach for the sky...

Somewhere over Thames River
birds still fly high
so do beauty
and fiscal duty,
So why then
oh why can't we?

Can't we see,
Earth's harmonic integrity.
