Just listen...... As you lie beside me, breathing softly, Through two lips that echo a smile from the closeness of our few moments ago.. Just listen.. As the gentle night plays peek-a-boo with the dawning of the day, and the early bird rises to catch his worm.. Just listen.. Before the cars start up and speed away, Before the doors slam shut with the leaving of bodies off to make their mark in this peaceful, quiet world.. Just listen.. As I sit at the table, gazing out upon the yard you so carefully planted to delight my eyes on a morn such as this.. Just listen.. Be still, and hear your heartbeat hear the beating that is yours alone The beat of life lies within, and without We can hear the silent roar of the Universe.. All we have to do is Just listen.. Your words become music to my soul...... [This message has been edited by Sunny1 (edited 07-15-2000).] |

Hi Sunny, Wow, your words are music to my ears, you have thoughts like I do, I listen all of the time to the world and those around me, I feel that you miss so much if you don't stop and listen, and this should be shared with all the world, may be the world would slow down alittle don't you think. Awesome poem Love, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist. We have to be reminded that He exist!" (Writer Unknown) |

Cerenity....... Hi.......always glad to meet another 'observer'. My Dad used to say, "How do you expect to learn anything if you don't listen???" Glad you liked this, too.... By the way, I'm a fan of yours! Your words become music to my soul...... |

Sunny1~ A most enjoyable read. I spend a lot of time 'listening' and find that people have so much to offer. 'As the gentle night plays peek-a-boo with the dawning of the day' I enjoyed this line. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

The more that you listen, the more that you hear.... Then the meaning of life is abundantly clear.... You'll find inspirations in everyday places.... They'll wind up in Passions.... and fill up the spaces!! Keep Listening, keep writing....... so I can keep reading!!!!!! Marsha, Trew, and ethome..... thank you all so much!!! Live for today and enjoy the moment..... |

My vote to you Friend...just listen...how often do we forget and how often do we miss because we hear the shout but not the whisper?< !signature--> never say never [This message has been edited by Paula Finn (edited 07-20-2000).] |

Sunny1, You captured what is amiss with two lovers. One listens and the other doesn't know how, and then they are gone. As always, what insight comes from inside you. |
