The Singer's Heart
For National Poetry Month #16
In the singer’s heart,
dwells the child
who once jumped from rock to rock
without fear of falling.
Open
In the singer’s heart,
the soul flies
across emotional terrain
mapped in the path between sonority and lip,
freed from the bondage
of the mundane dance of chores.
Free
The singer’s heart
touches the land
with the paint of emotions
unhurried in timbre,
unpocketed by man,
each in its own time.
Expressive
In the singer’s heart,
vibration blooms
and spills
and fills
every cell
as intention is born
and the soul is voiced.
In the singer’s heart, lies love.
