Linda-Marie Sweetheart Poet Rhyme

Listen To the Heart

"Listen!  to the Heart"
       ~~~~~~~~


every heart strums strings of symphony
an open book exploring dreams and fantasies
the lovebeat touches emotions and feelings serene
as candy-filled caramel cremes.

every heart twirls in tune to love and romance
a paradox portrait of lovers in a trance
echoing laughter in harmonious haven
or a fickle falsetto black as a raven.

every heart is a treasure chest of precious jewels
as tenderness comforts those heartaches so cruel
the heart always gives;  suddenly takes away
so listen to the heart; hear the words it must say.
