To Live

Where do I truly want to Live? I want a place that has what it can give? A place that is warm with a fire in the hearth. I want to Live in my heart. I have traveled across our beloved Mother Earth. I saw the beauty as my wife gave birth. As all of life here has given me a wonderful start. I want to Live in My Heart. My Father has gifted my life to me. The painful living of others is what I See. I hold onto my chest and cry in the dark. I still want to Live in my Heart. As the Morning breaks into a beautiful day. Gentle winds touch the flowers, and they sway. The moon begins to shine and brings forth the stars I Still want to live in my Heart. A gazing loving child with puppy dog eyes Gives me wonder as I toss her into the sky. She lands on my bosom as we will never part. I will always and forever have her in my heart. I look into the heavens with grateful tears. My life well lived through these magical years. My Soul flies with soaring love into heaven I embark. I have lived truly from my heart.
