If only you’d listen

So long the ears live, they must always hear
all of what the heart, mouth and mind would say.
So allow words to tickle you, my dear.

If only you listen, you will get there,
you will know what envelope comes today.
So long the ears live, they must always hear.

What thread I use today, you cannot share,
of all my secrets, do not break the clay,
so allow words to tickle you, my dear.

Listen carefully so you find it fair,
do not disrupt God, do not break the play.
So long the ears live, they must always hear.

Laid are these rules, they guide and move your gear,
do not take the right turn, do not be gay
so allow words to tickle you, my dear.

Open your mind to heal your eyes despair,
collect the silence buried with no pay
So long the ears live, they must always hear.
so allow words to tickle you, my dear.
