Dearest Heart

Do not look for me out on a plain;
For sure as life it will not rain.

Do not look for me far a yonder; 
For there i shall not ponder.

Do not look for me up in the skies;
there all but my spirit flies.

Do not look for me in hell bent fire;
For at peace i am with your desire.

Do not look for me on moss laden bark;
As i am not with the ferret or the lark-

But deep inside your dearest heart.
