I am somebody when I have learned to listen
October 04, 2016
To be somebody is to listen carefully,
to other people, to their worries and views.
To be somebody is to listen lovingly,
to a little child and a shabby street singer.
To be somebody is to listen wondering,
to the singing bird and the voice of thunder.
To be somebody is to listen intently,
to the sound of nature and the voice of God.
To be somebody is to listen with your eyes,
to see what the Eternal one is saying now.
