Listening

Birds song

Laughing along 

Childish whispers

The sounds we hear 

And take for granted 

Something i've lived without

and so much appreciated

The pound of a heart beat 

The crash of the waves

Voices only softened 

Noises almost deafened 

My inspiration came from knowledge 

The Knowledge of silence 

Learned behaviors brought by safe expectation

Looking for the words 

Listening with the eyes

Things so easily missed by the ordinary

Isn't it extraordinary

Actions have power 

More power than words 

Thats what ive learned
