Deafness Poem by Daniel Bernard Kelleher

Deafness



Stop look around you and listen
For sounds not heard in awhile
The fast lane you live in
You forgot how to listen

The sound from the bee hive
As bees make its honey
The bird in the nest
As she welcomes her chicks

The snail on the trees
Chewing at leafs
The butterfly flutters
From flower to flower

The sights all around you
Are there to behold
Not to be shut from your life
So stop look around you and listen
