The Sound of Music
Deep in the heart of Mother Earthrise’s rolling green bosoms,
Bodhisattvas awaken from the slumber of ignorance.
Why do we build walls and bruise egos just to be heard?
Why not listen to the beating of our own heart’s rhythm
and sing from this place of self-love?
The world needs confidence, courage, self-compassion
to conquer our mistrust in humanity.
Let the notes punctuate the silent spaces within us
till we are dancing with doubt,
serenading it with our sweet music singing
I am here!
I deserve your love!
