Listening: Poem

 

Listening

I

I do not cry about the past

Because it is gone.

I do not stress about the future

Because it has not arrived.

I live in the present

To make it beautiful

 And transparent.

II

Naturally empathetic

Enjoy listening

And doing my best

To allay my fears,

Contrary, not expecting

Anything in return.

Somehow, this reinforces

My attraction to you.

III

Listening skills

Makes you attractive

And satisfaction that feels.

Listening is essential

And help me understand hopes,

Needs, and wants.

Emotions and doubts

 Are the path to a start.

Attention to details

Has a self-expressional art

That requires an emotional heart.

IV

Listening is a hug of mind,

A comfort, healing hug –

The whatever kind

You need, sometimes,

To cover

When you are listening to a lover.
