Provides the music for the stars
To be dancing circles in the night.

composed by: Marilyn Strong from the Rumi poem Don’t Go Back to Sleep
artist: Marilyn Strong

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don’t go back to sleep!
You must ask for what you really want.
Don’t go back to sleep!

The door is round and open,
Where the two worlds meet.
Go across the Threshold.
Don’t go back to sleep!

Song for Gorilla

composed by: Marilyn Strong from the Mary Oliver poem Wild Geese
artist: Marilyn Strong

You do not have to be good.
You do not have to be good.
You only have to let
The soft Animal
Of your body
Love what it loves!

Joy in the Body.
Joy in the Soul.
Joy in the simple things
That make us whole.
