A Renaissance Heart

The essence of humanity, Oh, so delicately frail As gossamer silk wings On arid August winds This unkempt structure Capable of fierce vivacity And yet somehow… So effortlessly fractured By a heartfelt whim Hopes once worth effort Strewn about sidewalks Life’s weathered stones Abandoned and waning Callously kicked aside And then somehow… Rain washed to the shore To be pulled away once more By the evening tides
