• if the trees could speak
    oh what stores they could tell you
    new and old
    legend and myth
    long forgotten tails
    tails of old worlds long gone
    they could tell you the tails of the forest
    the chatter of birds
    the calls of foxes and hounds
    they could tell you of tragedies and death
    they could tell you comedies and jokes
    stores of the hunts by the great kings
    stores of great beasts that once roamed the lands
    tails of the rise and fall of heros
    if you knew what the trees knew
    you would know all
    oh if only the trees could speak
    what things they could tell you
    they could tell you the truth of what happened in the past
    they could tell you what the birds and the bees think
    why the white flower grow under there shade
    why the fox chases the rabbit
    why the birds sing with such voices
    they could teach us...
    if we are but wiling to listen
    if the trees could speak
    they would tell us...
    love is kind
    faith is pure
    peace is divine
    life is long
    death is short
    anger is murders
    violence is useless
    they would tell us
    foxes are foxes
    snakes are snakes
    but a human...
    is a fragile spirit
    that needs to be guided back home
    they would say
    the land is green and fruitful
    the sea is blue and plentiful
    the hearts of men well turn to the sky
    and as once in a life time well see there brother on high
    they tell us
    if you listen carefully
    heaven is waiting...
