Sign Language Poem by Martin O'Neill

Sign Language

Rating: 5.0


Picking an invisible hair from a lapel
With a half smile.
Leaving a hand behind a second longer.
The blatant yet imperceptible nod
Leaning inwards, attentive
Eyes opening wider
Lips parted, moist
The soft, sensual
Semaphore
Of Love.

We could still read the signs there even if the words were inaudible.
