Wondering Who Is Listening

Wondering who is listening
Hearing my words
Speaking, understanding those
That they’ve heard.

Will I go on or say not a word
A quandary
I’m taking to heart
Without
Writing down a single word.

Much Has Been Said

Much has been said and no one is right
All must bond, sitting together tonight
Saying not a word til dawn’s morning light
Then only if heartfelt last night
More can be said by not saying a thing
A nod, a wave can convey everything.

Follow your soul, your heart and your mind
Say the words slow, let them trickle
Giving time to know what they are
Making sure they’re clearly defined
So one can say
Not much has been said but all is sublime.
