the hands and feet speak

the language of the hands and feet speak clearly and quite distinct

they aren’t confusing and people easily see, what they wish to say

they never struggle with choice of words, their message is clear and need not be loud

they quietly effect the haughty and proud and rarely cause a debate

there isn’t really much to say, when someone chooses to walk away

hard to confront someone who isn’t there

the same can be said when someone is alone, because of actions or no fault of their own, to see those hands and feet coming to comfort and hold, speaks of love that no words can bestow

so it comes to me as little surprise if the hands and feet speak their message is clear and the words we can offer pale to compare

the mouth should be last to profess, if the hands and feet have passed the test

love is actions, not words
