(((First and foremost! 50% will be donated to The Bird Center of Michigan! Spring songbird intake time!)))

*No feathers were actually gathered in the making of this song!
It's actually illegal to remove wild bird feathers from their habitat.
Just sayin'!

This song. I wanted to give it away. Now, a new partnership has made it about something greater, and here is my, (read: our!) way to support that cause

This song does something to me, it moves deep places and awakens hope. it means something to me that I can't quite describe, something that I will be sorting out for awhile.
Written on a "Covid walk" with my hubs, I think it has particular implication for these days we are in.
Well, human existence has always been a trip; we're not that special. But we've been through weird stuff lately.
Now, it's time to heal; to rebuild, if you will.
I will.

Again, I will donate 50% of any proceeds from this song to The Bird Center of Michigan; they do incredible, heartfelt compassionate work for our avian friends. Where else can you deliver that poor little wounded dove you find on your daily run, knowing all that can be done to save her will be done? Precious few, the resources like this place. They give the birds a fighting chance in an increasingly hostile environment; this world that is all they have for a home.
They more you can give, they more they get.

lyrics

Gather feathers
Build them into Something better
than you’ve got
Were all falling apart
What makes us less makes the next
thing more than it was before
Gather feathers

Entropy is not the enemy
The law of nature wild rearranger of the way things are and what will be
Is calling you to play

Gather feathers
Build them into Something better
than you’ve got
Were all falling apart
What makes us less makes the next
thing more than it was before
So Gather Feathers

Line your nest with the very best
Of what you find in each day what's within your grasp hey ya know you’re truly blessed
Redeem the offcast

Gather feathers
Build them into Something better
than you’ve got
Were all falling apart
What makes us less makes the next
thing more than it was before
So Gather feathers

Hey little bird have you heard
Bring every bit of kindness sweet words
Bring every broken heart broken twig
Let’s build something big

Gather feathers
Build them into Something better
than you’ve got
Were all falling apart
What makes us less makes the next
thing more than it was before
So Gather Feathers
