Winter coming, what is love

dogwood at quarry hill
dogwood at quarry hill

days get short
time indoors

we can talk
with people we
love
and
if we
really love
them,

listen to what
they have to
say

this is nice
when awake,
just letting their words
come
maybe for five minutes
or more
not saying anything

just listening,
not giving advice
just listening

not interrupting
just listening

following the breathing
being present

the present
of our presence

so much more
that all the stuff
we hide behind
in non present
present giving

la,
la
