Imagine the Courage

Imagine 13:01:99

Desired by all…Imagine the courage…

Imagine the courage to love the land
to cease the game
to change the plan
to cease the ruin
to seek the buck
to sell our soul for a logging truck

Imagine the courage to stop and think
to cease the madness
with a blink
to cease this sadness
for all who think
Australia’s old forests are her most sacred link

Imagine the courage of yet another day
when words are spoken
in a different way
Juxtaposed against those
of profit or pay
and their money making companies who have all the say.

Imagine the courage to truly love the land
And I don’t mean a wheat farm,
a tree farm
or the dryness of sand.
I mean the wildness of wilderness
and her ancient landscapes that stand

Unscathed by the white hand…

Imagine the courage…
