Harm None

*This was written for my daughter when she was three, to illustrate the Wiccan Rede.*

We don't ever want to hurt the ones we love.
We don't kick and scream and cry, or push and shove.
We don't hit our Mom and Dad, even when we're feeling bad-
you'll find a hug and kiss might fix it well enough.

Chorus:
Harm none (harm none)
Harm none (harm none)
There will be peace inside your heart when day is done.
Harm none (harm none)
Harm none (harm none)
Though we're unique, we are the same--we are all one.
And so we try to be kind to everyone...
and we will honor every life when we harm none.

If some selfish kid comes by and takes your toy,
just ignore it and play with some other boy.
If he really wants to fight, and he tries with all his might-
remember only you can let him steal your joy.
(chorus)

If you're unhappy you should take care of your health,
for what's inside your mind's more powerful than wealth.
Too much worry, too much *whine*
when you're complainin' all the time,
while it bugs me, you really only hurt yourself.
(chorus)

Every living thing has feelings just like me.
The Lord and Lady live in everything I see.
We are connected by a strand, on a web with every man-
respecting others means that I'm respecting me.
(chorus)
