Heart, Where Have You Been

You asked me… Heart, my friend Where have you been? I answered after thinking a while About the way my feelings Had fought for their affection Their promises of tenderness Their dreams blended with faith I answered after thinking a while About the way I’d been helped By grace and amazing challenges Inspiration filled with enchantment Bold and beautiful laughter and joy I answered after thinking a while About the memories I’d made on the way To this place of serenity and thanks This place where I could be confidant Complete with serenity so pure it could echo… “grace, Grace, G R A C E” You asked me… Heart, my friend Where have you been? And, after thinking for a while… I smiled, “my heart, you see… Has been dancing a waltz of hope A waltz of wonderful faith, All in the spirit of love….” So I praise… dancing all the while With appreciation for each smile!
