At dVerse Lillian is hosting Poetics with an invitation to write a poem choosing a name from a Ben and Jerry’s list of ice-creams. For more info follow the link below:
dVerse Poets – Poetics – Make Mine A Double-dipper
The name I chose to use in my poem is: Miz Jelena’s Sweet Potato Pie.
“For a word to be spoken, there must be silence. Before, and after.” Ursula K. Le Guin
The Ear Of The Heart Not just for Miz Jelena's sweet potato pie is her path well trod, or her sweet-peas admired, or her door wide to the world, such wonderful things are not the sum, it is the certainty of being heard, Miz Jelena has a heart ear that holds all of you in the telling.

Empathic listening is the key. That silence and truly listening rather than simply hearing. Love your response here to the prompt!
