The Old Harmonies
By Shashama
There was a time When the world was new When hate was inside So very few The people all sang The old harmonies And joining in chorus Were the birds and the trees The Earth was unshadowed It's glory not gone And all of it's creatures Sang the same song Hate was unknown then Brothers still cared Everything was important And everything was shared Me, I still long for Those times, so long past It really is too bad That they didn't last There are few among us Who sing the old songs Some are still with us They're not quite all gone So keep your eyes open For the old singers few You don't believe me? I'm telling you, it's true One day, I know You'll ask a fair bird About the old harmonies He'll say what he's heard When you hear his answer You'll know that its true The singer of the harmonies Has now become you...My name...
