The softest of whispers are as a shout
in dulcet tone speak to me now about
Murmur of echoes 'cross sub-concious fields
Let that which is heard this day be revealed
Impart subtle meaning to this my task
Intently I listen , a child who asks
"Are we almost there yet , where do we stand ?"
"How do I fit in this strangest of lands ?"
From these days so structured should I resist
in this small way define how I exist
Not as one cast from an all purpose mold
Let pass this chance to have my story told ?
Nay , I will not for some few also hear
that which to most merely falls on deaf ears .

Wow.   This needs to be on top so everyone can see.   This was well written.  

 Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau"

Bravo!!  What more can one say?

As always I have to read your poetry a couple of times, but the more I read it, the more I like it and appreciate it. This one I just love Doc !

There are always those out there who are listening, maybe even more than we think. Great poem, Dr. Moose!
