PRAISE TO NATURE
This lyric was inspired from the Native American philosophy encompassing the belief that Nature should be observed as something holy and a gift in itself.

Paradise is the Painted Desert, colors blending.
Silence will capture us. Can you hear it ending?
A phoenix will rise from his ashes
most forwardly and humbly.
Presence of the sweet mystery
we will feel quite dearly.
The aspects of Nature’s beauty
warmly rest in my heart so soothing.
The Goddess of moon and fantasy
brings me closer to you, see!
Every valley is rich with flavor
waiting for every selfless favor.
Also the Earthly God of treasure
helps me give his pleasures.
Don’t give this feeling up.
Keep on the spinning cup
and dance to the mystical rhythms inside
and up above.
Spirits fly to a parallel universe over yonder
and hover like a dove with a song I often fonder.
Timeless nights bring the heavenly Milky Way closer,
over on the desert sky with an ascending cluster.
The effects of echoes proceed
to the crest of a canyon yawning.
A crescent moon begins exuding its luster.
Moving every sand pebble under our sandals
and soon will arrive night’s sweet hallowing.
See the shooting star rise and fall
like a wish for peace brings a windfall
The howling of the coyote’s pining song
waits for the new day’s dawning.
A chameleon appears after a breathtaking sunrise.
From the indigo bush falls morning dew for its swallowing.
Witness every hope of our ancestry
weave an ancient tapestry.
Don’t ever whine and plea.
Dance with an everlasting glee.
Then bring your soul and body to rejoice
with a vibrant voice.
Paradise is the Painted Desert, colors blending.
Silence will capture us. Can you hear it ending?
