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.
Thank you, Rebecca!
Amazing composition, and brilliant poetry. Brilliant work @ericvancewalton.
Thanks for sharing this post.
Have a wonderful day! ☺
great words and you expressed it quite well thanks for sharing this interesting poem :)
Absolutely amazing poem.
This thoroughly describes life. Really beautiful
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.
I appreciate that you have shared this composition
I wish you a great dayBeautiful composition dear friend @ericvancewalton and very realistic, few are the people who dare to listen with their eyes, it is easier to lend the ear and give acentado what is heard without serciorarse that what has been heard is true,
@ericvancewalton, What a creative poem you already posted here. It has more meanings and we can use into our life. Some writing lines inspire me lot. Start with trying and finish with happiness. Nice thoughts indeed.
such a lovely sonnet and verses so stunning its best decisions and genuine ballad and it's touched my heart.
beautiful, to hear with the glance, is an art that few develop and that the poets have of intuitive form
There are few with both the characteristics in our society but as it seems for now as being in Steemit just believing the words of yours are much more grateful !
You're a perfect poet in this platform. It's very smart creativity. Those poem very good message to community. It's important than 1000 words. Go ahead @ericvancewalton.
That is such a good point my friend.
Has been great friends Your poems are recognized by your mind. I like these analogues. As much as I think you wrote this parable by dedicating someone.
