So much noise, have we forgotten the skill?
Let silence surround you and listen.
Hear the rain hit the window pain.
Hear the silence when the snow falls.
Hear the child at play…
SHHHHH Listen
Too busy! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Rather wear my IPOD turned up loud.
Rather let the world cries of despair surround me
So much noise it overwhelms.
Everything is just one noise.
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
LISTEN
Let the silence in.
Block out the worlds din
Let the subtle sounds in.
Have you lost the skill?
LISTEN
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
So much rushing
No time to be still
Take time out from the hustle
Stand on a hill and listen.
Hear the birds call
The waves rushing in
The brook rushing over rocks
SHHHHHH Listen
