                                          My heart beckons
                                     to learn not just how to forgive,
                                         but also how to mend.

                                          My heart beckons
                                         to once again dance
                                         with you in the rain.

                                          My heart beckons
                                          to no longer feel
                                        this never ending pain.

                                          My heart beckons
                                           to know what
                                            love is for.

                                          My heart beckons
                                            to hold you...

                                           just once more.

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.

Anyone who with the heart to write this already knows what love is for. Lovely poem.  

There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar.

This one hit home with me my friend, well written.  So much like my own thoughts on this page, with subtle differences    Nice job.

Strive for higher levels, if they seem out of reach... Grow, and they will get closer.

With a heart like yours ... I have no doubt that your heart will find exactly what it is in search of.  Besides, when it beckons as beautifully as this verse, it is surely going to draw some attention to the matter.  Wonderful write.

Thanks go out to all of you.  I do appreciate it very much.  Mark, I guess you have to know what it is that your heart wants, and then decide if it's worth it or not.  Decisions......decions....I appreciate the kind comments from you all.  Just a tough time right now dealing with the heart......such a tricky thing it seems to be.    I just can't help but wonder if it ever gets any easier, or makes any sense.  I'm babbling again.......sorry gang.  I really truly do appreciate you all.  Hugs to all, and luv.
