We Will Make Our Own Maps

These prairie dogs will scare the snakes away

And these flies will clear the path for me

I shall walk alone

And they will laugh at me

Next thing they know I’m leading them down the path I’ve already blazed

And then we all will be joyfully laughing at the beauty that surrounds us

And I will turn and say there is no need to follow me,

Join me and let nature set you free

There is no need for a compass, follow your own instinct

We will make our own maps

Just because it has been explored before

Doesn’t mean it can’t be explored again.

People are from Earth

Men are from Mars
Women are from Venus
People are from Earth.

The Seeds of Peace

Is peace possible in a world full of hate?

Why is it so hard to cooperate with people not like us?

Can we not just board a big peace bus instead of the hate train we’re on?

The world is not that simple of course,

It is easier to hate than love

And trains can go faster than buses

So maybe we need to build a peace plane

It will fly around the world and take the peaceful off the hate train

Seeds of peace and love have been planted before

But the red tides keep washing them away

And the seeds have sunk to the bottom of the ocean floor

It looks like hate and anger are here to stay.
