This little chord change here speaks vast volumes of a soul's hope.  Beautifully phrased.

Wow!! What a discovery you have been. And your very talented singing friend!! I will have to do more listening…🙏🏼

Is there really hope? Is the human mind so developed that we can feel and give support, empathy, help and hope to everyone around us? Why then, do we build walls? And how tall do they need to be, to separate us.....from..... each other?

And why do some countries build mental walls between the sexes of their own people, declaring one gender (read women) far less valuable than the other? Or castes, from so-called high-born to insignificant, despite belonging to the same people. Why is one crow worth more than all other crows?

Will you Raise Your Right Hand?

Peter
Can you number the circle’s rim, each point on a list?
Enumerate the air, simply cupping of your hands
Freedom lantern’s falling dim in honesty’s fading mist
But will you raise your right hand, when hope makes its stand?

Oddrun
Can you census the clouds, in a ledger of the sky
Set out in a single line each and every grain of sand
When the despot weaves his thieving lies will you stand idly by
Or will you raise your right hand, when hope makes its stand?

Peter & Oddrun
Can you audit every atom, in a volume for the shelf
Each uniquely named, indexed on demand
Does the mirror only fathom, a shallow of your self
Or will you raise your right hand, when hope makes its stand?

Oddrun & Peter
Can you detail every shimmered light on a canvas of the stars
A snapshot of the cosmos as at light speed it expands
Will you document but passive shame in the volumes of your pale memoirs
Or will you raise your right hand, when hope makes its stand?

Oddrun & Peter
Can you hoist the flag of humankind above the crass material world
Crush the armies of greed, their legions to disband
When the shining banner of grace is finally unfurled
Did you raise your right hand, when hope made its stand?
