"The world is full of
poems, but you have to
be quiet to hear them."
~Mary Oliver

Alas, indeed we live in a
noisy, noisy world! Feel
like I can't hear myself
think half the time . . .

So love me that old mixed
metaphor, "Slow down and
listen."

I'm trying for it all . . . the
whole slowing down thing,
making the effort to listen,
And really, truly hearing.

I want the peace the quiet
brings. I need to hear the
poems Mother Nature shares.

In this loud, noisy world . . .
quick of pace and slow to
forgive, I long to learn the
art of being quiet.
