Shush, Did You Hear That

Shush.... did you hear that?

The sound of the dawn chorus 

The waves breaking gently upon the shore 

The rustle of the wind blowing between the trees

Shush.... did you hear that?

The sound of the earth and nature breathing

The sound of peace resonating

Then children playing happily

Followed by the laughter echoing happiness

The sounds of prayers by the blessed

Shush.... did you hear that?

It's the sound of change

And a paradigm shift

About to give all of humanity a lift.
