Listen

Listen. Deeply to the silence Hear the faintest whimper The still, calm voice   Listen. To your heartbeat Dive into the unknown Roll with the waves Crashing ashore Hear the rhythm of the ocean Beating within your heart Open your mind Open your heart Ready your soul   Listen. To your heart It is calling you Daring you  To stand in your truth With a fierce grace Hear the pressing urge The buried longing  Of your soul   Listen. And you will hear The universe speak Through whispers of air

This one has the depth I look for in poetry. It uses the surroundings to focus on a thought. Your best piece I have read so far this month. Well done.

Hi Mandie, This poem far surpasses the one I just critiqued in content and lovely words. It is a well written free verse with vivid imagery and liquid like flow. The entire poem appeals to me on every level. Bravo! Best wishes, cheyenne
