My Mother Earth

I heard the call of the wild at my back door
A magnificent bear black shinny and i

Of his home his habitat,the place he lived

 I said I feared for his life as men were mad

 He said come and see the destruction

I went into Clayoquot Sound and witnessed

Police uniforms courts sheriffs handcuffs prison

They locked me up for loving the wild places

Put me in solitary confinement,I was defiant
I was not a criminal,they were destroying it
Destroying everything sacred, on the planet 

That bear came swimming as I was arrested

The court room witnessed thru the video
The judge quelled the  noisy uproar
 I got sentenced to half a year in a prison
For loving the wild things of this holy planet

I could feel his strength in my being my bones

Handcuffed tortured jailed for all wild beings
When you give up on life life gives up on you

  I grew up in the place of no electric static

  No telephones no hydro no noise only nature

  Moments were bliss filled days of rambling

  Sitting still by streams waterfalls and hillsides

  Walking all day long with only the sound of birds

  Oh that heaven is still so deep in my core being                    

  I am a drop of water sent here to sing a song

  An ancient song of peace to help you remember
