By Candle Glow

Through the night by candle glow
I stitch, patch, glue and sew
With deftest hands I repair the parts
And give new life to broken hearts

Jars of stardust, moonbeams glows
Angels feathers and fragrant Rose
Rainbows colours abound my store
With bottles of love ready to pour

Some come filled full of sadness
Drain them off and fill with happiness
And those that are full of sorrow
Stuff with hope for a new tomorrow

Those that come lacking of care
Fill with kindness, that they may share
And the childs heart that searches love
I fill with prayers from the lord above

The heart of a lover broken in two
The smallest of stitches and ksses true
Fill it with honey and beautiful dreams
Caress it with love and sentient themes

And those of the old that come to my care
I fill them with peace and memories to share
Those that come angry and so full of hate
I wash and scrub them and say they must wait

My work is nearly done as I start to yawn
My time is short if to deliver by dawn
The beating heart I replace whilst asleep
A kiss for your heart and away I shall creep

Repairing and preserving the heart are important activities, Daniel. It is necessary to sort out those bad influences and allow the good ones to fill our lives. Another wonderful poem from a great author! Love, Carolyn (And I sent an email to your home address)
