“SPEAKING HEART”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
A heart can speak, but
one must listen when
it does, for it will
whisper words of
wisdom…

Mine spoke when I first
saw you, and if yours
were listening, it
would have heard mine
say how very
precious you are…

and I'm thirsty any way
so bring on the rain

*sigh* the heart speaks as do words that come from our heart this is true but how is one to know if they are real or fantasy...this poem made me think of the times I have listened to words and believed only to be told they were only words and not meant to convey anything. You touched me with this poem, dear man, you have a heart that speaks volumes and ears that listen closely, I think. Wisdom is clearly in these words...you amaze me with your ability to touch on so many areas of feelings. **big hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

nice tight poem with a quick get in and get out message that is amplified for being in that format.

Bill darling boy this is outstanding truly awesome. Sometimes a poem speaks volumes this does. You obviously listen to your heart, and I’m listening to this poem it sings to me

YOU really are an outstanding writer. No one ever writes like you do, YOU are superb

Is this good? Does the earth spin in space and time? Do birds sing? Does the sea always touch the shore? Yes? Then YES this is utterly utterly fabulous

:Love and warm stuff

Bill....thank you for this one!  Your heart really shows in this piece....you gentle man you! I love it as all the women in Passions will.  Of course we all think it was written for us alone!  *But, sigh, only I know it as meant just for me!*
~Hugs, Nancy~

~Time has cast a spell on you,
  So you won't ever forget me~
