Product Description
Natures Dream (©2012) Piano, Vocal, Flute, Soprano Sax, Upright
Bass. The first several bars came to me in a 2011 vivid dream in which Paul
McCandless was playing soaring soprano sax melodies and Jaye Alison Moscariello
was singing lyrics I did not remember from the dream. It was originally in D with some Dad-related
chord progressions. This version is in A
to better fit the alto voice. After
writing 3 verses of rather convoluted lyrics about healing the planet, Jaye
helped pare it down to one powerful verse that could be a world anthem. George and Paul play solos during the
instrumental break. We think this would make a great national, or
international, anthem.
This is our planet, the one that
we all share
Let us remember that all life
breathes the air
Our world is sacred, its future in
our trust
And it continues after bodies turn
to dust
Shall we continue to think we own
the beasts?
Or know the truth that all of us
share the feast?
Grow for each other and for the
creatures too
Plant life and fungi nourish the
whole zoo
Lessons weve learned from species
that have passed
Transform our ways or we may not
last
Take time to learn what ancestors
teach us
Honor the spirit residing in that
which feeds us
Act for the future of seven
generations
And together we can share in this
dance of life
Act for the future of seven
generations
Act for the welfare of seven
generations
