Hearts are the life force of all beings. It ensures that the body gets what it needs to survive. It can fail at times, both physically and spiritually. We should do what we can to feed it in order that we may be healthy and strong.
This poem was inspired by a grouping of lacquered boxes.
Treasures Of The Heart
Like a small box,
My heart holds secrets and shame,
Pride and purpose,
Light and love.
As with a key
I keep some of what is stored inside locked away.
It's just between God and me.
There are drawers that slide open with ease
Ready to release the laughter and joy,
The sorrow and sympathy,
The anger and confusion.
With felt-lined pockets
I lay my soul within.
It is safe here.
I have room enough for you.
