Love Poem: Listening Is Love

Written by: Line Gauthier

Listening Is Love

how rare the precious gift
of looking into another’s eyes
of listening with ears and heart
of waiting for their story to unfold

how rare the precious gift
of nurturing the silence
of letting each petal bloom
     slowly in its own time

how rare the precious gift
of truly listening
of sharing inner secrets
of walking hidden gardens
