Stopped listening today
In her eyes I heard a plea
In his smile, curiousity
In his stance ,a longing for more
In her tremble a need to be secure
Stopped listening for a day
Stopped talking today
In her hand I felt an open heart
In their stares insecurity
In their looks I felt loved
In her cry I felt gratitude
I stopped talking today
Stopped judging today
In their begging and dreary state I felt kinship
In my smile they returned understanding
In our short time together we felt not alone
I stopped judging today
My lenses needed cleansing
Years and layers have thickened my view
Concentrated hours of release gave my child back
He wouldn't last a day out here by himself
I would miss him if he did not return
