Today's Poem
Listen Harder Listen harder, all is there Don't get too lost in what's unfair Each has a call, some work to do So look within and start with you Complaints will come, and problems too No matter what you try to do We sometimes, truly, just can't win But learn some more, new things begin A dream beyond the place we're at A trick which waits beneath a hat So unexpected and sublime That all will change for good this time You'll see it's time to battle on The days of thought and rest are gone With daily deeds we'll work and earn But listen harder, truly learn (c) Simon J.

Reviews of "Listen Harder"

Reviewed by Ronald Hull

Reviewed on March 16, 2014

Listening is an art that I haven't mastered very well. As soon as I hear someone talking to me my mind immediately fills with something to say in response. If I listen too long, I lose the thought of something I wanted to tell the speaker. Conversation should not consist of mutual monologues, but interactive dialogue.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
