" 831 "
Jane Latham 1955 (East Prairie,Missouri)
When I see you in a crowded room
I long to tell you, " I love you "
You feel uncomfortable when I am bold
I give to you, a secret code
"831" a secret code, just between us
It can be used, anytime, any place
without fear or fuss
You will know in your heart
exactly what it means
And know your feelings
I am Honoring
There are 8 letters in this phrase
Divided into 3 words
They equal 1 meaning
packed with all my love
So without ever touching
as you look into my eyes
I will whisper, "831"
As I pass you by
