Heartbeat

I listen to the music of the heartbeat of Mother Earth,

and it is my heartbeat.

 I listen to my heartbeat,

and it is the heartbeat of all who walk this earth now

and all who have walked before.

I and they have the same heartbeat.

You whom I love

and you whom I fear,

my friend and my enemy.

our hearts beat the same,

our heart beats the same beat.

We are not separate,

we are one.

We have the same heartbeat.

We move differently to the same rhythm,

but our hearts beat to the same beat,

the same beat as Mother Earth.

Why then do we fight?

Why then do we see so differently?

Why then do we forget to love one another?

Why then do we experience so differently?

Why is our expression of life so different?

Why do we not love one another more?

We have the same heartbeat,

the same beat as Mother Earth.
