There's a voice out there in the silence. Did you hear?
In the calmness of your heart, did you perceive?
I have been living with someone without a voice
He has taught me a thing or two
Rabbit is his name, would you say "Hello!"
'A rabbit's wish' so he spoke.
_________________________
A Rabbit’s wish
Hopping in and out
Of a kind human house.
Freely sniff all around,
Without holds and bounds.
There was a time I was first held,
My heart trembled unwell.
Her arms wrapped me
Snug like a baby
Melted all the frozen peas.
I'm now in a world sweeter than blackberries.
I hop and flop all around with no worries.
I uttered to her with a smile,
"If this is a dream, I should stay a longer while"
2 years passed, came 2 chicks,
Chirped all day long for weeks.
I said "Noooooo!!!! Not for this!!"
I don’t wish my peace to be missed
One morning, i was woken to
A cock-a-doodle-doo
The chicks have grown, lo n behold
Cluck cluck cluck all be told...
I tried being friendly
By approaching gently,
But none bothered,
When I offered,
"Would you like some broccoli?"
On one cold thundery night,
The chickens were asleep inside,
I went out for some bite
But came home with the doors shut tight
I barked, i cockadoodledooed n I meowed,
"Mommy, have you forgotten me?"
I shouted out loud.
No one heard
Though they love;
I know they do,
I whispered silently,
"Why has no one ever heard?
If I have a voice will you listen?"
This is the wish hidden inside of me.
Rabbit

Is there someone around you who is like a rabbit without voice? Can you hear the voice in that silence?
Perhaps, we can all try to...
Walk a little slower
Linger a little longer
Hold on to a little lesser
Then see if we can hear a little clearer.
And I'm wishing your tomorrow be lovelier..
