Deftly To Ears (An Original Poem)
for a moment,
to listen with your eyes.
lies travel more
deftly to ears.
dance, spritely,
like an allegro
through the symphony of
our collective thoughts.
the courage to acknowledge
what it is we see?
smile, and stay entranced
by the music?

I enjoyed the flow of your words. Music is a good way to think about the collective consciousness.

Absolutely amazing poem.

Awesome poem with beautiful wordings .
We can't listen with ears and eyes, we can listen with concentration .
Seeing is believing in my book but I'm sure you knew that.
Your poem here is something that everyone should take to heart and summon the courage.
Otherwise, the hits will just keep coming and turned up way to loud.
Amen @sultnpapper! "...the hits will just keep coming and turned up way too loud." You crack me up! The older I get the more I realize how true it is. At 47 time is too short to deal with any sort of unnecessary foolishness. : )
Very nice poem! I appreciated in a special way the sentence "listen with your eyes". Maybe they can seem simple words, but there are a great lesson to learn in that sentence.
Thank you @silviabeneforti! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
A beautiful poem, my friend and this subtle sense pushes us to take a closer look at life and what is happening around us in general! Thank you Eric
Wow amazing, this piece is thoroughly filled with figures of speeches, I love rhetorical questions, the way you use simple words to convey powerful stuffs, it's beautiful beyond acknowledged, well written too, nice free flowing free verse
I appreciate the kind words!
Wow! It's fun to enjoy. You write with great ability. In addition, the typography is very beautiful. Thank you for giving us something beautiful and the value of the struggle to stare and achieve this increasingly complex future.
