your ears are your own


The musician may sing to you of the rhythm which is in all space,
but he cannot give you the ear which arrests the rhythm,
nor the voice that echoes it
~Khalil Gibran

your ears are your own

gifted from a deep place of comfort
listening, furnishing both
the music & the musician
for ever spinning etudes

spirit's song from water's edge
spilling into rivers deep
reverberation, returning
to you-  restoring sleep

ears  born in spiritsong
listening--literally cracking open
ears of corn in a storm


Kate Lamberg
