My heart drifts like this so often.. sometimes i have to run after it to place it back into my chest... When we understand our inner most mysteries, that is when we understand what is around us... your poem is profound and though provoking.. a sign of an excellent poet..

thank you for your mindful comments, Silent One. My hubby's heart drifts as does his mind...funny :-) I agree with you, when we understand our innermost selves, we understand and appreciate the world around us and the people within it. At least we're a little more tolerant perhaps. I'm grateful you found my poem profound and thought provoking. Your words mean a great deal to me. Have a pleasant evening, Sara
