Body Language.
We each have a language
To express, love, shock or even rage
Mother given or possibly learned
We use it daily a right we feel earned.
There is another language, that’s never heard.
Never needs loud voices or a single word.
It’s made up of body movement and within the eyes
It’s called body language and it’s impossible to disguise.
So you need more than your ears
To really understand your peers
You need your body and your eyes
Does that come as a surprise.
So when someone says they love you
It’s not their voice that makes it true
The truth is their eyes and their body stance
So listen with your eyes when you get a chance.

Female, wife, full time mother and Grandmother. I am not as happy go lucky as I used to be but I am still bubbling along on simmer! I have three handsome sons all grown and flown.The youngest married with a beautiful wife and two sons of his own. Back in 2010 I was working, running a home, driving and socializing then bang in a split second all that was gone. I had an accident at home. I broke my back, not for the first time, I had broken it 10 years previously as well. Unfortunately this time I had broken it really badly and it was truly messed up so I had to have two operations. I was told before each operation that the outcome could mean I spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair. Still as some guy once wrote "I am still standing " yes "better than I ever was " I no longer use the walking stick . I had lots of friends before the accident but when things like this happen, you loose most of them. Their lives move on and mine stood still and so they left me behind ...I know that is just the way life is but it hurt and always will. Then I looked around and saw those who were still there for me, these friends are the roses in my garden they need to be tended well. They are the diamonds in the dust. I will of been married 53yrs this comming year. I have found different ways to approach life, use my pain befriend it almost...yer right , well that is what they tell me at the pain clinic ROFLMAO ...... if only I could! I have found an outlet for my fears, frustrations and night terrors . I have started writing poetry if that name can be applied to my writing. I hope I do not come over as a moaning winger. I hope I am past all that. I also hope that you might see how the poetry is moving from very dark through the grey and hopefully in to light.
My back is no longer straight it is C shaped because of the injury and I have lost two and a half inches in height but my Pilates and Core teachers have helped me to stand up as straight and be as strong as possible. Pain and depression are still hanging on my arm but I have weapons to use against them and if I say so myself I cope well.
I have made lots of new friends, real diamonds. I am also very grateful for all the support and help I have encountered here on Wordpress. Hugs and welcome to everyone who visits.

Oh so good!!!
Thanks this is the first chance I have had today to sit and write!! 🤗💝
Enjoyed it ßis!
I am 🤗💖
So true!!
It is really isn’t it!💖💜
It’s hard, this whole body language thing, when you can’t see. I have learned to listen for other things, not speech, but sounds a person makes. This can offer clues sometimes. Otherwise, I am out of luck.
Oh! Of course I did not think of that! Are you blind, excuse me asking . I have to admit I just wrote the piece SoCs and the wider picture did not occur to me. You are right if you have no sight you have o my feel and sound and smell. I stand corrected. Have a good weekend. 💖💖
It’s not a problem. I am and just wanted to share my own perspective. You were simply writing from your own.
Indeed but I shall think more in future. 💜
Excellent 💖
