Wisdom
Abby
Listening
is the key to understanding
if we seal our lips and open our ears
we could learn
a sharp knife slicing through a thin string
we cut them off in the middle of their sentence
interrupting them
like rain on a sunny day
don’t just look at the whole forest
look at every tree instead
wisdom only comes
to those who listen
