Language Power

Is it a nod of submission, Full- fledged agreement or simply a compromise? It all depends how it’s expressed Twitch of your nose may express utter disgust Combine it with happy eyes and a smile, the implication is different! Raising of the brows expresses surprise Combined with rolling eyes It could become a criticism too!   A salute may be sarcastic or purely genuine How tight is the handshake, may define If it’s formal, cold, or filled with genuine warmth A host need not spell displeasure with your presence You just know when you’ve overstayed your welcome Jealousy concealed deep down at times may seep through one’s eyes Excitement too has a way of oozing out          French, Urdu, Spanish or Swedish Learning a language may take ages Body language however, just a basic instinct! Through body language you may make a sale Create a lasting impression Looks can be deceiving or inviting Is this woman sleezy or classy? Was that gentleman confident or not? Why is a child more drawn to one than to another? Expression of love needs not another language Act of sex can be just for physical fulfillment, void of emotion Or ultimate expression of passionate love   Admiration reflects through happy eyes Sadness scatters itself on one’s face, may even extend well beyond Ironically, even trying to control the expression at times Message may still be communicated! To enhance this skill is quite possible For this may surpass any other style of communication!   No matter how powerful and expressive Body Language may be It still begs the ability of perception And interpretation by others ..........................................
