A Two-Way Street Poem by Audrey Heller

Communication, is a two-way street, that
begins by listening! Be intent and you'll
end up, glistening! By far, this is an art,
that requires skill. So it's smart to pay
attention, as only you, can do it, at will.
It's offensive, when you're being spoken
to, not to heed what's being said. Make
contact, with your eyes and use your
head. When you speak, it's only natural,
that you want that person, to be direct.
It's important to know, what you said,
also has an affect. No one, wants to
talk and not, be heard. You feel, like
you're talking for nothing and they haven't
heard, a word. Just remember,
communication, is a two-way street and
it needs your undivided attention, to make
it right. Don't put it off, any longer and
work on it, with all your might!
