Heart Shades

Chaste innocence pulses a newborn's heart. Babes sweetly believe life is pureness shared. In time, infants bloom singular feel art for life paints them all both love and hurt bared. All hearts are made to feel scorned, burned and torn, to choose a weak or brave heartbeat array. Some hearts retain pure bits, some turn forlorn, and some burn emotions in fear's ashtray. My own heart shines opal hues simply bright from feels most radiant and blued pains mixed, then glossed in faith caught drops of fluid light. Either way, my opal heart beats thus fixed. Perhaps, heart gemstones pulse knowledge to solve how all newborn hearts may with love evolve.

Whatever the issue, love is the answer. I taught my son that when he was quite young, and I still remind myself of that truth. Good to see you. Many thanks ... CayCay
