'Listen' has the exact same letters as 'Silent'. Coincidence?

Velcro Koalas, an original poem by PoetryGrrrl

on May 30, 1996

053096

Sweetness and sticky
almost like velcro on koala
but not quite?
more like basking in a sunny day
happily swimming through murky depths
and growing trees,
and pastels of
*wildflowers*
just for beauty's sake.
and shared laughter,
and a smile.
and the sweetest bitter
of bitterest sweet
runs through heads
hearts, hands, lips
lends saddened joy
on my part.
do not leave,
please?

( my friend A. used to tell me that he was a velcro koala and he just wanted to to be stuck to me.  It made me feel very claustrophobic.  This poem was written for my friend D. )
