Softly
June 23, 2010
Softly, softly
Whisper
Slowly
Careful
Do not scare them
We wouldn’t want to frighten them away
I think they understand
I think they’re learning
Soaking up the words
One droplet at a time
Louder now
I think they can handle it
I think they’ll understand
Faster, just a little
Ease them in
I think they’ve got it
Raise your voice
A little louder
Bring what they’re avoiding home
Yell no, I think
I’m sure they’ll take it
Scream the words right in their ears
Even if they do not want to
It is time for them to hear
