Tongue Tied

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sometimes, I lose the ability
To articulate my thoughts

And my words begin to wander
Into places dark and deep

And my vocal chords vibrate
Like a humming bird
Inside an orchid’s grasp

Sometimes, when I look into your eyes
My words are hushed yet impulsive

Yet, I still can communicate with you
And I know you totally understand what I’m saying

Sometimes, my words are just useless
Especially when our tongues are tied together

The best description of a meaningful kiss that I have ever read... Some use words to get to the kiss; others kiss to articulate inadequate words. The beauty with your writing is that you articulate the heart ALWAYS and your tongue is an extension of that particular centre (hmmmm... maybe not tooooo good to imagine THAT one!!). Psychically, your heart is always designed to reach out and touch, and that is where it employs beautiful words. The tongues that you tie together are but a figure of the hearts that you seek to unite. Your thoughts cannot help but be articulated through your heart, because that is where you connect... Blah, blah... Think I LIKE this one!! :)) K xx

Sometimes, something beautiful do not need to be conveyed by words, and yet the unspoken words were understood.

Beautiful!

The tongue of this poem is not tied. It speaks perfectly with someone who understands the language of love.

Dear Jude,

Aaahhh who needs words when "one look is worth a thousand words" words are never useless... though "actions speak louder than words" Beautifully penned for a loved one.

Jude,

The universal communicator. When you can't form words, meld mouths. Sometimes the volumes spoken there dwarf anything we could say...

Peace,

Your words come through in spite of amorous problems.
And, they tell your readers how good you are at this art.
This is a a real ringer dinger zinger, and we all love it.

Somehow I don't envision you to ever be at a loss for words, Jude, but being able to communicate through speech and writing can sometimes be two very different things. There are times when words pale to what we feel and at those times I am grateful for those who know my heart and soul so that I don't have to stumble in my expression. Very beautiful poetry.
Take care,
Sherry

So do I ... that is ... lose the ability to articulate my thoughts! I recognize the limits of my endurance when "our tongues are tied together" and I learned that well by practicing tying a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue, "Inside an orchard's grasp!"
