          Land of Her Heart

The willow-branch fingers
gently brush the surface
of this meadow pond
near the ancient forest edge.
From somewhere in a distant
  dream
an old Celtic melody plays softly ...
a song of deepest love, home
and everlastingness.
She is my bright pole star
  and true compass
in the lovely, mysterious
land of her heart.

land of her heart."

The land of heart is a most beautiful star indeed. We can't hold it any more than those that nova in the heavens, but it is a home that holds us. Lovely lines!
