Listen... As they show you their many needs and ways From the moment they are born To the very last of your days Their poetry is in motion They're language is in play Their cries for help, behavior Their wisdom, confounds "your way" Love... Though you may be tired And doubt plagues your mind You crave quiet open spaces And Sanity is so hard to find Know each grace is given For travelers to find a path Branches placed to trip you Land you on humility's softened grass Learn... To see youself the prisoner You keep under lock and key The one you flog for disappointing The one who begs to be set free To let go of your agenda Your illusion of control Listen, Love and Learn All that's needed to be made whole.

Listen, Love, and Learn
Listen... As they show you their many needs and ways From the moment they are born To the very last of your days Their poetry is in motion They're language is in play Their cries for help, behavior Their wisdom, confounds "your way" Love... Though you may be tired And doubt plagues your mind You crave quiet open spaces And Sanity is so hard to find Know each grace is given For travelers to find a path Branches placed to trip you Land you on humility's softened grass Learn... To see youself the prisoner You keep under lock and key The one you flog for disappointing The one who begs to be set free To let go of your agenda Your illusion of control Listen, Love and Learn All that's needed to be made whole.
