Journal entry:
The poem today was inspired by The Sunday Whirl. The words supplied are in italics. If you like, visit that site and make something of the words yourself.
Body Language
Snapshots hanging on
Thin walls which barely stand in
Place between us and
Other people who utter
Words through lips hardly moving.
We touch someone’s skin
Our gesture sent in an act
Of sweet compassion
Measured out completely free
Of our premeditation.
Our stories are told
In open eyes, gentle hands,
Bringing emotion
To the surface of our lives,
Spreading it among people.
We are determined
By our interaction with
Everyone we know
Whether lover, family,
Friend, or even hated foe.
Our bodies know truth
Without our mind’s intention
Shouting our meaning
Loudly and clearly before
All the world surrounding us.
