Listen

Stop a while and listen
To the earth as it breathes.
Take the time to wonder
At the miracle of life.
Walk quietly through the world
As the wise man doe's
For he will see it's beauty.
Only the fool will rant and rave
Blind to what he sees
And deaf to the voice of love.
Let the gentle breeze
Cool a fevered brow
And gentle rain,
Soothe a worried soul.
