Listen...




by Betty Jo Hilger




















A blade of grass bends over

to listen

        

Leaves rustle in the breeze

and listen



Forests die and no one cares

to listen

        

Species, dead and gone

Please listen



Children whisper in the night

pray listen



Neighbor, desperate for a friend

to listen



Use your heart, your mind, your soul

and listen

                                                        

Attention is a state of mind

please listen



You can change the world

if...



you listen





No person is powerless, no matter how it may seem that it is so.  Each one of us has the
power to change the world if we listen...  We will be changed for the better as well...
