.
I’m one of a singers on the earth.
love to sing about, and for the Nature on this planet.
Nature ,we can see, touch and feel.
Nature, we used to know….(and we’re unfortunately becoming detached)
Nature inside of us…(but we can remember)
When we balance the inner true nature, we can see and touch them again ,in our outer environment.
Voice has that power
And there are passed on words, to pronounce to make it true.
There are passed on treasure songs, to sing to make it true.
Let us sing. let us vibrate.
