This is a green poem (song). It is suitable for crowds as a sing along song.
This is a universal ‘green’ protest song. The first line can be changed by protestors to suit their protest. It could be changed to “Prevent coal smoke’ or “No to nuclear” for example. People singing the song must still call it “Tree Dress The Earth,” even if they change the first line.
There is a singing version and a backing track version both as free mp3 downloads at http://www.ilike.com/artist/Swayseeker/ It is a sing along type poem (song). The poem is repeated four times when singing along. The repetitive nature makes it easy for people to learn and sing along at meetings. The sheet music, can be found at http://swayseeker.blogspot.com/
Tree Dress the Earth by Swayseeker
Change our ways (fill in your own words for this first line)
Save the earth
Plant a tree
Give new birth
Birth to hope
Better than
Hopeless ways
With no plan
Grow more plants
Use less power
Reduce the heat
Prevent the hour
The hour that looms
Unless we say
We’ll try to help
The earth today
END (note that the words above should be gone through four times to match the tune)
