The Heart

The heart can only say what it knows so knows what it cannot say It cannot say goodbye entirely to one, once greeted eternally It cannot say goodbye to one given all her world of Tenderly The heart can never say what it is told to say for the heart will only listen to the heart....

Never heard of Russell Brand. So, I looked him up on the internet, and listened to him for awhile, and from what I can tell, he is Right On -- speaking truth to power. I will put him on my prayer list.

Yes, thank you, I better understand. Many try to interpret God, which is why I stick to the King James' Version. Truth, Love, God~ needs no affirmation but His Presence. I have always told myself, that if I have to give myself a lot reasons to do something or not...it is probably wrong. Thank you for all the enlightenment you do here. Have a great day my friend!

Yes, the heart, as the song says "Will go on forever" (what is behind its motivation) is true. One of the few times I agree with a song. Thank you my friend.

Strays that I took in. Won my heart. Even built a special screened-in room for them, in the rear of the house. All sorts of things for them to jump and climb on. Like being outside but safe for them.

The heart has a language all of its own, it cannot be bullied, its soft but sturdy and resilient too, I love the heart and your poem too Joe :)

Impossible really...that's why, no matter how severely we may screw up...I do not believe God ever says goodbye entirely to any of us. Blessings my friend.
