To Hear

About how much most of us take for granted, as in..hearing. Not all can hear and those who can need to take time to hear the world.

To hear the sound of running water

To hear the sobs of the tears you cry

To hear the wind and the rush of the trees

To hear everything

 

Some people can't hear

Only see

I think about these people in the world

And how much we take for granted

 

To be able to hear is a gift

A gift not all have

Don't take this gift for granted

Enjoy it, and hear life.
