Listen, dear heart
To the voice of God
I pray my soul,
Be tuned to His love
Listen, dear heart,
To the words of wisdom
Replay her commands,
Never pause it for a moment
Listen, dear heart,
To the song nature plays
From the rooster’s crow
To the cricket’s chirp
Listen, dear heart,
To the sound of your lover,
Feel the rhythm of love
As you both swoon to it
Listen, dear heart,
To the pain the world,
Hear the noise all around
And be touched to provide help
Listen, dear heart
Your time on earth is short
For praise was sung at your birth,
A dirge will be played at your death…
(c) Chukwudi I.
