Plant the seeds you wish to reap.
I have planted my seed in the soil of my people.
I have no home, no earthly land,

Miniskirts my mother loathed and free love too, so I was told
Music of choice was Motown and Soul that played upon my radio
At weekends...

Anything of substance now silent,
no nuance in bony dialect;
Floundering in a devoid ocean 
we are starving for fluid language;

Sand bar bellows...

Got her independent 50s years back
She is independent dependable nation
Average of her products are made in China

During oil boom that

The Governors complain about the POTUS
The President complains about them

Too Much Technology,
Yet not enough Ecology.
Too much Talking,
And not enough conversation.

Too much planning,
Yet not enough doing.
Too much planting,
And not enough food.

Too many cars,
Yet not enough people.
Too much production,
And not enough consumption.

Too low prices,
Yet not enough...

Love God with all your life
Love your neighbour as yourself
Love your enemy
Love the unlovable
Love the helpless in life
Love the environment
Love the things you hate the most
Love your work
Love you craft
Love your culture...
