When I feel the need to replenish my soul,
I go to my special place to renew
I go there to lay down upon the grass
I go there to admire the wondrous view
It is here I come to listen to the whispering pines,
to watch the flowing of the gentle brook,
a hawk swooping and circling in the sky,
the fish jumping, snakes playing tag while I look
It is here my friends the deer, bear, red fox, red squirrel come,
even the white coated skunk comes up to sniff at my shoe,
as I watch the chipmunks scavenge for food
It is here I come to get away from the chaos
sorrows of my other world,
the one that tries so hard with every breath
to box you in, confine you, own you,
bring you to your knees
It is here, in my retreat I can let my heart, my soul fly free
drowning in all the Creator has given, for you, and for me
It is here I renew my vows to all that surrounds me,
to fight, to protect, a Warrior I have become,
I work to make sure my vow is kept
For each day a little more forest is gone,
water tainted, one more animal becomes extinct,
the sky is full of noxious toxic stench,
haze to block out the stars, the moon, the sun,
houses encroaching on our animal families space,
makes me feel being human is a disgrace
