Give Your Love Away

Written By BOHIE

Give your love away
To every passing stranger
To every bird flying overhead
And every wandering ranger

Give your love away
Let it float along the breeze
Let it wander down dark pathways
Let it embrace those it pleases

Give your love away
In a smile, in a song
Do not hold it in or
Keep it close
Let it dance the whole night long

Give your love away
Watch it cling to dandelions
Resting on the water
Where it drinks anew, inspired

Give your love away
It is the sparks, not the fire
It is not precious, don’t despair
Your love is not finite

Give your love away
To those who can’t receive it
Give it to the stars, and to the flowers
And those who cannot feel it

BOHIE

Based in Braidwood, NSW, BOHIE creates art, illustration, public space murals, and creative workshopping experiences that explore wonder and connection to each other and to the natural world.

She works alongside educational institutions, government agencies, community focus groups and stewards of the natural world to design change-making campaigns for each creative project. Bohie utilises a research-based methodology to find inspiration for her artworks, resulting in 2D images which are laden with deeper stories and symbolic meaning.

This narrative driven conceptual development injects her unique authenticity and grass-roots integrity into the public arena, which she sees as a conscious challenge to public advertising. In a time of rapid change, extreme instability and a globally recognised feeling of imminent threat, Bohie’s art provides messages of hope and empowerment for a changed future.
