listen one and all
give ears in rapt attention
peace speaks quietly

I wish it would speak a little louder, and more often. Good thought, though.

Well said my friend, and isn't it wonderful to have the internal peace needed to be able to speak such words...

Very simply put, but very true.  There's a lot of thought that can become of this poem.  Enjoyed, as usual!

Exactly dear Interloper!! Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.

You capture so much in so few words Interloper. The message is well received in this wisdom-laced piece. Much enjoyed.

Best wishes,

Hush, listen softly
Hear the whispering voices
Learn from their wisdom.
