My Heart Feels

No words can express
the beauty of hearing your voice
after a century of being half deaf...

The wonderful noises of the world
is music to my ears,
even a child's cries of tantrums.

The chirping of birds,
the wind whistling through the trees
the rain dancing on the grass
is the language of my home
on this wonderful earth
a language I can understand
because I can finally hear.
