A Heart of Stone For a Heart of Flesh

Infinite hearts of infinite loves Sent to earth on wings of diligent doves Infinite wisdom with infinite smiles Sent to earth for her turbulent trials Infinite eyes through infinite stars Sent to earth to look at her scars Let your heart of stone crumble in His presence That we may abide in love within our penance Let Him give you a true heart of flesh That we may melt our sins and refresh It has been said that a heart of stone Shall never wander but stand alone It has been said that a heart of flesh Shall willingly wander and always mesh Let Him come inside your hurting heart That we may have joy and a fresh new start.

What may be the existing moral; A response it needs that is choral.

WW, Thanks for your recent comment on the last couplet I posted on Poetry Soup!!Your new couplet here is marvelously done -- truly a wondrous write, and most appropriate for the Christmas season too!! Each of your eight couplets are distinct with what they say, but at the same time, are indelibly linked in the reader's mind and shall not be forgotten!! Superb Work WW!! A FAVE!! Best Always, Gary
