Hearing
Coffee House Writers / Ivor Steven

Do you peer through the blinds? 
Did you peek and wonder? 
About the empty street outside 
Why is every morning like Sunday? 
A solemn quietness amplified 

Do you listen to the bells chime? 
Did you hear your silent number? 
Ring from the phone-box outside 
Is the world in a slumber? 
Waiting, forlornly mystified
