Bird Song In The Rain
Dear Reader
a friend of nature recorded this beautiful chorus of bird song in the rain
on an English summer evening deep in the countryside.
We are grateful for the beauty and strength of Gaia.
We have no need to dominate and oppress and understand Gaia will reclaim the earth
for nature, the animals and the children just as Stuart Wilde

Listening to the primordial sound of water- rain and the natural bird song can be
as a meditation helping to achieve more peace
