Listen, as this listener
Now becomes one with words
To lift the letters from that space
Where silence is but heard
The time is now to listen up
To the one who made these words
From a mighty field of richness
This silence now emerged
As the barren stone will crumble
In its debris, the flower will grow
Beckoning light with simplicity
From its petals words will flow
The petals fall towards me
In words, each one does say
Inspiration, truth and wisdom
Love is the only way.
So words they living find us
In thought or image, they play
In pictures filled with poetry
Listen deeply to what they say.
