Something’s in the water,
sounds strange

but may be so ~

attitudes rambunctious,
where’d all the smiling faces
go?

Is anyone really
listening?

Or am I talking
to myself?

A quilt of irritating worry
has covered enlightened senses

are we so busy tearing down
our ever mended fences?

Seems too easy to misspeak
when listening is too hurried

when underlying all our tense
others’ actions keep us worried.

Please, once again
hear the rocking of this chair

slow down then your heart with me
and dwell in this love I share.

love's comfortable chair
awaits restful reposit
resting in your love

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

If only the world would slow down and really listen to one another ...

Sometimes we just go through each day so fast and so aimlessly, that we just don't stop and try to hear what others are really trying to say ... ...

I know what you mean ... I talk to myself all the time and i wonder if it's normal. But it's also during those times when i wish i could share this with a loved one ... the innermost me ... me in my natural element.


Really enjoyed your piece here.
