Love Over Matter

Love Over Matter

A brain which is a mass of cells, 
Succumbs to what the heartbeat tells,
Who needs to use their 
Minds over molecules,
Rather become fools,
And so win jewels!

Love is all in the mind, but throughout the ages it has been associated and romanced to be the heart! It is a nice thought though - love and the heart - Thanks Gordon my friend, Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

For sure Sandra, and to think it is such a small organ in our bodies that has become fantasized and romanticized throughout the ages to describe love! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
