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...
