Quiet Listening

Quiet Listening
in silence hear

Ears attuned can recognize
the language of the earth:
howlings of sorrow,
chirpings of mirth.
So much in the tunes
that all around play,
matching their resonance
to time of the day.
Do we hear? Do we listen?
Are we aware? Do we care?
Quiet listening.
