Is it heard ...

Is it heard in the delicate descent of a snowflake?

Is it heard in the wise whisper of an elder’s story?

Is it heard in the silence of silence?

Is it heard in the wonder of a pondered pause?

Is it heard in the sacred sounds of animals?

Is it heard in the consideration of being fully “here”?

Is it heard in the scrumptious scribble of a poem?

Is it heard in the compassion for the unfamiliar?

Is it heard in the regality of trees?

Is it heard in the laughter of a child?

Is it heard in the willingness to listen?

Yes, it is heard.

What do you believe it is?

Believe in your answer(s).

And add to this poem with your own “Is it heard in the … ?” questions.
