    words ?


     Do you understand
    my silence?

    Do you understand
    my words?

    I observe a lot by watching
    what goes on around
    my world.

    Do you understand
    the deaf man?

    Do you understand
    his words?

    He observes it all
    by watching
    what goes on around
    his world.

    Do you understand
    the blind man?

    Do you understand his words?
    he can't observe 
    at all by watching
    what goes on around 
    his world.

    If you do not understand 
    my silence
    You will not understand my words.

    Quite a captivating work you've created. Actions are always so much louder than words .. observe and ponder. Nice!

    I don't know what to say about this poem. It leaves me speechless, no pun intended. I like it, though. That's not a negative thing.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
