MONEY

Money is the mover, it makes us do things that can make us all shiver. 
Money is like a power, it makes us glow with desire. 
Money is like a culture, it has the power to move mountains and cause great things of oppression. 
Money has taken all the free stuff, and turned it into a way to control us. 
Money has turned our forests into cities, taking all the clean air and making us sick with lack of green cleaning natural living. 
Money has a way, it has the power to make us all be afraid. 
Money has taken most of the free growing apple trees and other trees, and made us pay for things that God gave us for free. 
Money was only suppose to be for trading, not for oppression or for causing starvation. 
So, plant the free growing food, make our spaces green with clean air, let the babies be born and stop all the killing, love, live, grow and pray, let the natural world heal and live life with love and care. 
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
