Works of Heart.
Everything good
we hold
in our hearts
is a treasure,
a vast glass
menagerie
but fragile,
beware,
for hearts
can be broken
and shatter
the memories,
with months
spent reglueing
the joys
once displayed,
in the gleam
of our eyes,
in the glow
of our smiles.
Rejection of
love chases
all hope away,
and leaves
a soul blind
to a lifetime
of riches.
Be sure
when you offer
your heart
to another,
that they
are curators
of all that
you are,
who with
gentle affections
add much more
to your dreams
set with care in
heart chambers,
building on
the collection
that you both
can enjoy
till the fates
carry you
to the one with
a huge heart,
that many
call heaven,
where you'll shine
like a diamond,
in the light
of his grace.
