The Message

The Message In the far-reaching depths of the ocean That could cover Mount Everest In life, one thinks that one has all the answers to each emotion But what has happened before, is not a fleeting jest The Aztec and the Inca believe that the Earth speaks She tries to tell of the changes of the past Planetary Earth change, floods and major leaks But this season will never last For there will be a new beginning And an ending of this time When man will be apt to see the shining As hope, prayer and destiny will be fine The eyes are the mirror to the soul So reason and virtue clear In time, one day, she will be whole And death, disease and destruction never more to fear Greed, hatred, anger and covetousness is a dangerous thing Jealousy, Envy and pride will lead to utter destruction So all should be humble, be ever ready to pray, dance and sing For the past technologies are here again to help in man's construction Before one awaken the Earth's wrath And the natural resources of land, water, gold and oil which men fight over Should chose a more spiritual path Remember the message of the ancient peoples, and take cover William Morrissey 2/4/07
