Food Chain tells of sea gulls and blue heron fishing. Adonis is about surfers after a Hurricane--surfing the big waves off the gulf coast. Red Tide relates how quickly a fish kill can happen. Rhythm is about the drum circle on Siesta Key beach at sunset each Sunday.
Lyrics
Food Chain
Salt spray, Manta Ray
Blue heron fishing
little legs
up and down the beach
waiting and wishing
tiny bait shimmer and shine
beckoning try one more time
pods of dolphin undulate
hovering sea gulls
watch and wait
swooping down
to catch their prey
they are fed for another day
a balance of nature
since the beginning of time
this was God's
....grand design
Theresa Loder
Adonis
Adonis in the foam
wander from your home
surf the mighty roar
as tunnels crash on shore
ankles tethered
riding rainbows all
lined up on the horizon
turned to nature's call
Adonis in the foam
wander from your home
surf the mighty roar
through Heaven's opened door
Theresa Loder
Red Tide
Thousands lay on parched sand
washed ashore
by nature's hand
oxygen starved
by a bloom that's red
some floating
as they fled
crystal clear water
aquamarine
transformed overnight
under moon lights gleam
deserted beach
stagnant air
the curious
stand and stare
Theresa Loder
Rhythm
Yes, yes, sun
shine upon my face
soft breezes bathe my skin
transporting me to places
that I've never been
Yes, yes
let me feel the glow
of moon beams in the night
illuminating pathways
of ever lasting light
yes, yes
let's dance along the shore
with wings upon our feet
stepping to the rhythm
as distant drummers beat
a primal longing call
that echoes in our heart
reverberating splendor
of which we all are part
of
yes, yes
let's dance along the shore
with wings upon our feet
stepping to the rhythm
as distant drummers beat
yes, yes
soft breezes bathe my skin
let me feel the glow
let's dance along the shore
yes, yes, yes
Theresa Loder
