ode to our speesees

for the ‘chik’s & the ‘kid’s
across this here globe
we have a story to tell
so let it be told

& travel with us
to a country afar
where the cows are your friends
& a tuk tuk’s your car

where they grow & they pick
our cotton by hand
the farmers, their children
their beautiful land

so travel with us
& you will soon see
that you’re free to be you
& i’m free to be me

the knitting, the dyeing,
the printing is clean
the speesees are sewn
by a wonderful team

and shipped here, each piece
with love and with care
from beginning to end
the process is fair

for the redwoods & ‘pup’s
on the land & the sea
take our hand lend your smile
and together we’ll be

just a part of the speesees
on this planet, this globe
do you have a story?
please let it be told.
