Listen

“Listen” Here I am “Listen” But I’m here I hear you “Listen” I’m listening! “Listen” I’m listening!!! “No, you are not. Listen” I don’t understand I’m here I’m listening! Ok. I’ll be quiet for a minute Speak! … … … I’m listening! But I don’t know what to expect What are you saying? “Listen” I’m listening! “No, you are not. Listen” But, I’m listennnnnnnniiiiiing! “No, you are not. Listen.” “If you were listening you would have heard The Message.” But, I’m listening “Yes, now you are listening.” Okay!!! So, what’s the message? “Listen” *Looks around in frustration.* *Walks away* By Sylvia Chika [email protected] http://sylviachika.blogspot.com/ http://sylviachika.wordpress.com/ https://www.facebook.com/sylviachikablog Instagram: @sylviachikawrites BBM Channel: C002F2845 Twitter:@sylviaoz © 2017 Sylvia Chika
