The Wonder of Me

Although my heart is not always worn on my sleeve
it is easy to find with eyes open to see.
My eyes chatter with interest as they survey
all that is before me, they convey what I say.
For all of my words that flow from my mouth
are the truest words or more questions about,
the whys and the why nots of this life we live
and debating of how or what I can give.
I analyse everything, but try to keep an open mind
so that opportunities do not close any door behind.
You will see me just gazing as if in a trance,
I hear musical notes that entice me to dance.
Hair flowing freely and mind too when I talk, 
the tune of life creates the spring in my walk.
