Listen, Listen Well
Listen and listen well
What do you hear?
The cold winter breeze
Or the falling leaves?
Is it the laughter of children
Or a silence in the trees?
Do you hear that?
Someone is coming.
What do they want?
Do you even know?
I told you to listen
but did you
.........No!
In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
