     hanging wind chimes ring;

     the silent listener hears

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

whose compositions caused 'listener' rage.
His music,was too radically new,
it gave the orchestra so little to do

So they invited others to come drink tea

Premium Member A Good Listener

She listened carefully
Without comment
Learning their secrets
Filing them in compartments

They were honored
Revealing things long hidden
Loosening up their hold
More open than they should have been.

Dadvice: Wisdom From a Beloved Wiseguy

Think before you speak
Finish what you start
Everything in moderation
     Even moderation
Embellish for the pleasure of the listener
Presentation is ninety percent
Kneel to propose
Timing is everything

Forever

FOREVER
I love, oh my Mom of forever
You set me free, you are my listener
You raise my up to be a best believer
Time and time again, you are greatest supporter

Roof

Roof we perhaps ignore
is a patient secret listener
hearing laughter and insults
silently doing her things
recording, sorting, tallying
never letting cats out of bags
when storm invites her to go
she flies with all data

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.

Premium Member A Swift Clerihew: Taylor's Version

Taylor Swift spins stories, her songbird-like sensations,
an underrated pop princess with poetical persuasions.
Her complex lyric lexicon, like a folklore luminary,
invites the listener to see themselves as a fellow visionary.

But Spoken Once

The delivery,
  incidental to the message

The format,
  duly chosen for the sound

The listener,
  singled out with times forgiveness

The truth
  —but spoken once to then abound

Let Me

Let me finish, let me proceed
Would you be one good listener?

Wish it was the shortest moment
But seemed only a beginner.

Let me proceed, let me go on
With all my true ability.

May you strive in patience therein
To defeat ambiguity.

Premium Member Jealous of Everyone

She knew it all; had a quick answer for everything.
I am the best listener, she told me. Everyone says so.
I knew that everyone had tried harder than I had to get in a word.
I was a bit jealous of everyone, wondering how everyone had done it.
