Birds Over Augusta Kentucky September 11, 2008

Bring Peace soft peace (bring peace)
in many shapes
in forms uncountable

high and wide and steep

a world of words (long peace)
wrapped like sun
in light submerged

in waters wide and deep

in time and touch
in clouds in rain
in living soil

in growing rolling leaves
to eyes that will believe

to minds to hands
to lips and arms
to smiles and weeping
to life and loss

to days to years
running walking dancing
turning TURNING

children sing
rounding - circling holding fast
new day at last, at last

bring peace in forms uncountable
long peace soft peace
Bring Peace (bring peace).

Are the bird sounds coming from a CD or did it just so happen birds were chirping outside?

Boriquaboy: The birds were coincidentally singing outside during our performance!

We just finished filming a short piece on Augusta and found this video. Very, very beautiful sound. We loved it!

Isn't it just funny how nature works, and it's just so fitting because of the piece, it added a nice "effect".
