Poseidon's Shell Melody

from Saturn Saw The Seaside by Blue Child Collective

/

lyrics

Take this shell
Hold it close against your ear
Quiet now
And all the oceans you will hear

In your hands
Through a natural instrument
With which you can
Call Poseidon to attention

Listen close
There is music in the wind
And you know
You can hear it whistling

Out a song
That resonates within the core
We belong
In the melody of major

Give the ocean your affection
And it will offer a reflection
When you clarify an intention
You open up to worldly wisdom

Stand up tall
Face the wind and all it brings
Remind yourself
Songs are carried on its wings

To us all
Joining dots with dotted lines
Of major and minor
All of the time, while all our words unwind
Under the water

See the sounds move in waves
Across the bays of our hearts
Which collect up the swells to embark
So we can start
To be a mirror to the sky
A liquid world for you and I
Amplified by every drop
And change in the tide

Give the ocean your affection
And it will offer a reflection
When you clarify an intention
You open up to worldly wisdom

Take this shell
And put it close against your ear
Quiet now
And all the oceans you will hear

In your hands
Through a natural instrument
With which you can
Call Poseidon to attention
