Simply said
A life played by ear
hark to what I say
wherever the feet lead us
we respond to words
or to the intimation of words
all things labeled
and described
catalogued
How the universe
longed for language
and for the relationships
it enables and fosters
the thoughts and dreams
and the acts of love
Our prayers fly up
our words remain
among the simplicities
of the rose
and the comfort
of lips touching
John Lyons
