He resents labels, black or white,
No preference, only a Human being,
Compassion is the philosophy,
Love is the weaponry.




The oppressed are family,
Blood relations just a footnote,
For family smiles with you through the rain,
And cries with you in the Sunshine.
Family does not judge, but strives to understand.




Season Greetings to Family in the traditional sense,
Permanent greetings to family in the magnificence of Love
The Spirit of the Land calls Him,
And yet the blind claim he wants to be King.




Greetings Oh, forgotten Ones
The land answers not by Chance
Greetings Oh, beautiful Elders
Your Souls carry wisdom as shelter
Greetings Oh, cries of redemption
The wind hears your meditation.




Lets us follow the middle path,
So that in Truth, Love and Wisdom,
We play our part.
We look up to the stars that are related in kind,
For Space and separation is an illusion just as time.





Oh family of creator of All,
He walks among you proud and tall,
He hears the soulful whispers,
Feels the sacred longing of Love ether.
We are here to stay,
Permanent greetings like the red glow of fresh Earth clay.




Let us honour the guardians of the Lands
Lets us rejoice the liberation of those true at heart,
Lets us honour the animals and trees,
For tomorrow it may be all gone save for guilt.





For family is not borne of Blood,
But ones that share all burdens as one,
Family is not intellectual arrogance,
But non-judgemental despite ignorance.




With Love,
