Though I have
The God given gift
Of two ears with which to hear –
Tuned into speech
Of the English variety,
With a little Gujarati thrown in –
Lord knows I struggle to understand.
Because words aren’t the full story
When people don’t mean what they say
And bodies speak another language
And eyes read different to lips.
Life and relationships
Would be so much easier
If there were a translation app for this.
