Shhh Listen

shhh listen... my interior voice needs to talk listen… i need silence the voice is so faint listen… i think I hear it an indelible murmur listen… it’s a breath with a message listen… ever so faint i can hear it now listen… it’s an incantation akin to a sacred mantra listen… i hear it clearly now it wants me to stop and listen AP: 3rd place 2020 Submitted on January3, 2019 for contest 2019 POETRY MARATHON MILE 8 sponsored by MARK TONEY and on September 15, 2018 for contest SHUSH...

Purely as a meditational focus though.' I think at this juncture I should ad ( hear hear) I can't think why? Now where did I leave my memory stick..and walking stick Glasses and teeth oh my I can see this is going to be a long day.'

If we would spend 10 minutes a day doing this for ourselves, our souls, our talents, our happiness, our families and our children we could create world peace Line. Your poem has launched me!

- We listen too little today ... there are too many sounds around us ... small things we do not hear because of human-made noise - (Soupmail with questions) - A nice poem, Line :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
