DRUMMING - AWAKENING HANDS + HEARTS

BOOM TA- KA BOOM, it starts with a Boom, like all of life

igniting feeling, healing through the warmth and light

Timeless beats of the drum, echoes the infinite beat of the heart;

the centre and magnetic vortex that fires the spark,

ignite the bodies to realise, we are truly works of art.

spiralling upward, gathering more momentum and life

indeed light is created through the pulse of the drum;

from hearts to the hands and hands to the hearts

through the echoes of the bounce and boom

BOOM TA - KA BOOM TA KA BOOM!

Vibrant, exciting, urgent and demanding.

invoking deeper wordless understandings

The endlessly brave beats of the drum

echoing the unstruck hearts forever hum

BOOM TA-KA BOOM TAK, BOOM KA TA

First Djembe and now Tabla calling me to play

the drums are urging me to remember another way

the tribal, primal beat of the earth echoing through my hands

from hands to heart, I’m called to deeply understand

Never-ending beats from first breath to last,

like lifes infinite spiral through present and past.
