Stories

Bloganuary probes and asks, “What is something you learned recently?”

To speak of what I learned today
I’m not at liberty to disclose
For such occurs in many a way
It comes with the territory, I s’pose.

For I’m a hearer of stories
Whispered from places deep
‘Tis a privilege to receive them
and in safety and silence keep.

Many a day I hear yarns old and new
And I sift them as they come
Some can be shared, but they are few
‘Tis a well-known rule of thumb.

So what I learn is treated well, precious as a treasure
Thus story-hearing and story-making becomes a cherished pleasure.
