Listen

Try listening to your heart beat
Slow down your run to a walk
Steer your walk to a park-bench
Sit there still as a rock.

Try listening to the snow-flakes fall
Hold the world away.
Lay your listening on the ground
Feel them whisper to your lips
Hear them landing with your face.

Try listening to the sea inside
Soothe the ruffling mind
Floating silently
Be thinner...quieter...bluer...molecular...

And listen with your life.
