Heart Light

The heart light feels what people can't see.
Passions reside and the shades to be.
Is a smile so shallow and showing so slim?
Is the heart's light showing to us so very dim?
What will it take to show us so bright.
It's that warmth in a smile to hold us tight.
How can I show you what I feel inside?
I'll use these words and try not to hide.
You are the gleam that makes me feel right.
Now from my soul is seen a great bright heart light.

How very true. Strange how you can feel so much with your heart but can't always put it in words. Great job.

Thank you Linda for reminding me to come back. Life changes were difficult for me, but I think I'm ready to move forward now. I missed you all so much.

The heart led by the mind, unconfined by illusion of sight, even fear. Probes the inner but fleating beauty that can transform a lifetime, touches the soul and a new realm in sight. Beautiful write Donald.
