Eyes speak for me <br />I that am taciturn, fragile, often tongue tied <br />Reveal your essence to the day, the night <br />When the fickle sun has taken its flight <br />My eyes will speak, with their delight <br /> <br />Mouth speak for me <br />Not through mere words or sounding cry <br />But in many expressions that passing by <br />When the only uttered sound might be a sigh <br />My mouth will speak for me, in smiles <br /> <br />Hands speak for me <br />Smooth and pale, though short of nail <br />For hands might soothe, where others fail <br />The eyes might scorn, the mouth might curl <br />While hands will speak, in softest braille<br /><br />Patti Masterman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-body-has-many-voices/
