Fathers, Word Games, Geometry and More...

    

Dear William,

First and foremost, HAPPY FATHER'S DAY on Sunday to all of you wonderful fathers out there! Listeners Unite features a tribute to fathers in the Listening Quotes Libraries. To see these great quotes by and about great fathers, click here!  :)  Also this month, I'd like to share two poems, a listening wish and an invitation to share your wishes, too. 

THE WORD GAME
A Poem with a Listening Theme
 

This month, I posted a poem about listening called The Word Game, which offers a glimpse into the mind of a child who wonders about this "word game" we call conversation. To read the poem, click here.

Along with The Word Game, I posted a photograph called Vanishing Point, which shows a face disappearing into the background. Children who don't feel they are heard find ways of disappearing; the child in the poem tries to give up her voice, as she sees no purpose in speaking when no one seems to be listening. To see the photograph, which is posted below the poem, click here.


The Story of a Circle and a Square  :) 

My poem, Geometry 101, which tells a little story of a circle and a square, has been posted on Morgen Bailey's Post-Weekend Poetry Page. Click here to read the poem.     

A LISTENING WISH
& an Invitation to Share your Wishes 

I shared the following listening wish on a Wish Tree; the tree was part of the Imagine Peace Project:

"I wish that every child would be listened to, encouraged, and respected-and that they would continue to be treated that way for the rest of their lives." - Linda Eve Diamond

To read about this project, Yoko Ono's Wish Trees, and how you can share your wishes online, click here
