The Listener

Don’t listen too closely…
thought can change the
quality of ears; and what
we hear is not always what
has been spoken – 

currents of
air carry sound differently -- 

each atmosphere a mixture 
of pros and cons antagonists – 

Brahma, not always a predictable 
in and out breathe. Besides,
Gods can be quite contrary, 

taught to us by the
Greeks and

Listener of the heart

Oh what thanks I give for your presence in this life. 
Your words are easy to listen and a pleasure to hear.
Who indeed in many ways stand apart from amoung the rest.
A listener of the heart, better  than a listener of words.

When Little Things Become So much

The sweet love of my life
Says has done or does that makes me  love her
And remain devoted faithful and true
But rather the little things she doesn’t say or do

As best friends and lovers
She accepts as I am 
The warts and faults of an imperfect man 
That I

Finding and Empathetic Listener

wanting to tell her my life story
a story I rarely tell
she is a willing listener
an anomaly
a rare gem

The Listener

...a phone visit with old friend:

Listen did I   as he filled me   in
on all the   current   doings
   of his life.

Then,
as a pause   slid-slid-slipped

I thought

And it's s promise: my response;
Off and on make my hearer pause,
As though

An Untrained Teacher

Or him skip for The Inspector,
A Child Deviant for Hot Iron,
His strokes like African lion...

Assignment once in a long while;
Things that simply promote his style
But how does he go that much length:

Their Listener For the Day

I am a listener
My eyes say “tell me”
And people do

Waitresses ask me to scoot over
I have never seen them before
They tell me their life story

Strangers and I converse 
in grocery stores, on airplanes, at funerals and weddings

I Am a Listener and a Jumper

Leftie I was and leftie I be.
I never watch stupidity on reality TV
Except Married at First Sight
Which gives me delight
I am a hippie, a gypsy, a faerie, I flee….
From those who have absolute ideas, for they frighten me.

I jump from this to that easily, 
Fearful of
