HEART’S MESSAGE

HEART’S MESSAGE


Letters, words and phrases, sentences,
Verbs and nouns, articles and gerund,
Proper syntax and punctuation,
Lend grace to a pen that is fecund.

When the paper is thus adorned by
Language writ boldly in black and white,
It conveys the message to reader
In form unambiguous, upright.

But when the message is from the heart,
It gets imprinted on another.
For mere crutches like paper or pen,
Or, for ink, it just does not bother.

The medium best suited for this
Is one of silence that’s receptive.
During the spell of such silence, both,
Sender and receiver are active.

Though messages from the heart are sent
Silently, they are truly potent.
