Poetry: Humanity

Created on: June 18, 2009

Song of the Cetaceans


I churn the waters of the seven seas
I swim into the forever
I sing of the past
the present
and the uncertain future
I sing for all mankind.

Many men wonder
who I really am
I have come from the eons
I have come to save our souls.

We tell our children to love us
but men still hunt us down

I cry for my brother
I cry for my mother
I cry for those who live here
but don't really know the world.

The stardust put us here
We came from the abyss
of time long gone.

Whale song for the present
Whale song for the future

I pray for all Mankind

Even though I may be long gone
I may never be missed
Only the Native Americans
know the truth.
They themselves have forgotten
about the natural world
the long ago
the forgotten words
the forgotten chants
the forgotten prayers.

God help us

I sing from the cerulean seas

I sing for your souls

The brothers from the seas only know
because we have forgotten the long ago time
we have forgotten the prayer.

I sing for all mankind.
