Wordless Truths


 
You moved me with your pretty speech
It left me somewhat stirred
For there is much allurement
In the sentiment of word

But I am getting older
And the truth; I’m learning well
There is much more told in action
That word can never tell

  4. Yes, they always have...they always will. It challenges us all, doesn't it?
