S.E.T.I is searching, or rather, listening For evidence we aren’t alone in the wilderness Listening, as a maid would While laying abed in the dark of night Expectant and intent For a lover’s rustle at her window S.E.T.I is awaiting news from the hinterlands That merfolk, cloud dwellers, or apes like us May also be clinging to lumps of galactic detritus Having become too passive to continue the search I too, content myself to listen Past the scuttling of mice in the ceiling Out to where the treetops whisper their secrets And beyond |

Oh, yes, many end up just listening and even when we hear, we still have doubts - not me though. I'm with Martie on this one! |

Having become too passive to continue the search I too, content myself to listen Sometimes, that's when we learn the most. *S* Enjoyed this! *S* |

They're out there, listening back. Wishing we'd say something worth hearing I think. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |
