Notes About The Poem

Humble Heart

Simplicity – abiding on the thoughts
Little things that touch the heart,
Gentle kisses, soothing whispers,
Magic breaks through in twinkling
Shimmering messages from the spirit
Silencing the darkness, erasing the doubt…
Inspiring the soul to believe and to trust

Modesty – abiding on the mind
Gentling the heart, restoring insight
Into the moments when joy was mine,
Sensations of grace, beauty so alive…
Stirring up passion from a breath,
A feeling so alive – it feels like a fire,
Sparked from the starlight, riding the moon…
Singing to the sun, dancing with wonder
Amazed by the subtle shimmer – serenity

Humility – abiding on the kindness
Easy, warm sunlight reflections reviving
Every memory of the laughter, the miracle
An epiphany written in the sunrise, 
Rain erasing the muted promises of the past,
Filling the heart with tenderness in hues of thanks
Blessings and prayers, plain truth, like a smile
Going the extra mile to prove to you…

The humble heart knows what it is to love
Beyond material possessions, beyond treasures
Beyond passions, words and embraces…
Beyond the past with all its temptations
The humble heart knows that to love without conditions
Means loving – best… when everything is simple
