Semiphore Signals Without Words
Love,our strongest passion afire
Once fanned,the embers of desire;
Half open,a sign,please wait for me,
Close to the left ear,an urgent plea-
Please,please wait for me.
Touched to full lips,an invite to kiss,
On a couch of imagined bliss;
Pressed shut to a cleavaged heart,this message
Let us never,ever part.
Fully open,slowly shut
Signalled a promise to be wed,
On which these courting expectations fed
Note: in days gone by, the fan was also an instrument of communication
