Quiet, watch

Quiet,
Listen.
What is that sound?
It is the sound of quiet escape.
Quiet,
Look.
What is that thing?
It is the shadows bred by swaying trees.
Silence!
Hear?
The sound of my heart thumping.
The waters of the earth bubbling under my feet.
Shh!
Watch.
The flitting birds in the air
The lions catching their prey.
Quiet.
Stand still!
Action blurs this moment
Movement breaks this trance.
Hurry
Watch,
Before the sight has gone
And we are back outside our books.
