THE PAGE WHERE THE HEART SPEAKS WORDS

(Dedicated to Margaret)

RE-READ

by John Yeo

The page where the heart speaks words

In a changing world is a private space 

In the book of life with love to be heard.

~

All outside interference with hate deferred

With feelings approaching this secret place

The page where the heart speaks words.

~

A page of heartfelt feelings transferred

Begs forgiveness and spurns disgrace

In the book of life with love to be heard.

~

To gain this page is an honour conferred 

A book where words and feelings trace

The page where the heart speaks words.

~

A page of personal feelings stirred

The words where feelings take their place

In the book of life with love to be heard.

~

The page of feelings read word for word,

Thought and life with love’s story embrace

The page where the heart speaks words

In the book of life with love to be heard.
