The Listener's Ear

The Listener's Ear

The Listener's Ear, God's amazing gift

to ones who's lost, confounded, in fear

compared to the other how great is the rift

when one cries to the Listener's Ear

How secrets untold unleash their bodies

in sadness or grief, or the lack of good cheer

to many untold their great burdened stories

but burst forth in full to the Listener's Ear

From skies to heavens, mountains to seas

from east to west, e'en the front to the rear

in confidence and trust, hearts give up their keys

to the locks of their depths, to the Listener's Ear

Feelings pour out in torrents of rain

crashes of waves and thunders to hear

upholding the shelter and sharing one's pain

none more such other than the Listener's Ear

With much of storms passed, the waters do cease

clouds do still loom seeming much all too near

yet the winds do change and the gloom's but a tease

with smiles and embraces from the Listener's Ear

The Listener's Ear, hears one, hears all

for all needs one such whom won't run nor jeer

but when all is done and one's moved passed their wall

who will stay awhile and listen to the Listener?
