These Few Things. Poem by Adrian Wait

To Listen, and to be heard
To be needed, and to know it
To value and to be valued
To give love and to receive it

To be truthful in word and deed
To appreciate beauty in all things
Including the inner self – that is you
To forgive and be forgiven
To dwell within the moment
To nourish the spirit within and
without you, listen to the inner voice
Be still and know

To lift your eyes to the sunrise
To dwell in the silence of a sunset
To hear the opus of the birds
And the wildness of the sea

These few things will enrich
Your life.
