Without a Stethoscope


Listen to your heart 
to follow a path that 
no one else can see or hear. 


That tiny thumping voice 

says more than the most 

exquisite poem. The 


trip-hammering of excitement. The slow plodding of a day’s 


exhaustion. The ragged race of grief. The steady thrum that paces 

out each step along a path. 


Listen to your feeling heart 

that speaks in a language 

without sound.


“Language is the blood of the soul into which 

thoughts run, and out of which they grow.”

~ Oliver Wendell Holmes
