A blue marbled sky,
High morn' moon,
Roosters crowing
      and chatting chicks,
Listening to cogs
Falling in clicks.

Always quietly
Listening, while feeling lost
In either their words
Or in all of my musings,
Although, never confusing.

Noticing

The separation 

Seeming to arise

When words appear

May drop as 

Resonance for

No one listening..

In that
place
which is North of normality
where
insanity's just a formality
I'm sat
listening to
Dmitri Shostakovich.

it served to cool me well.
While listening to the noise outside

What do you have in mind Lord?
Won’t you tell me?
I am listening and waiting
What do you want to say?

Sit we sombre wolves urbane
To the mountains, long to go
Where we listen to the snow

Premium Member Micro Seventy Six

I know everyone doesn’t need 
to hear what’s going on in your head, 
I just want one person to say
I’m listening, I’m here.

When I'M With You

When I'm with you, 
I want my body 
to be at ease.
Like I'm listening 
to the Killers. 

Calm my mind 
with your touch.

Hearing love-me-tender tones
Wings caress the wind
Flowers patiently await
Passionate nectar affairs

Sitting in the crowd
Even when the music stops
I'm still listening
Writing down the silent notes
To play your favorite songs

The Lover

The one who would be all: 
Brother, friend, mother, preacher, 
A listening ear
And a ready handkerchief, 
Mefenamic acid, 
Love.

Questions...

Sometimes I think
and feel the wisdom
of the unborn trees
in the Spring air
are you listening?
Do you feel?
Do you wonder?

Death of a Tree

A tree stood silent
As if it was listening
To mother nature
Who whispered what fools we are
When two men with saws approached
