When we build we also Destroy

Hear the cry of the Forest

The city  is built on the Grave of the Forest

When we build we also destroy

We rush forward determined engines of progress

Paving our way into the future,

Building monuments to our dominion,

Making and deconstructing in the same breath

Losing in that moment the Joy of its presence

And the inner light that makes us Alive.

We must take time out in this modern world,

To hear The Cry of the Forest buried beneath the City Streets.
