Heart Motion

a heart is blowing in the wind tonight
beating ever strongly on its flight
flowing on the current through the trees
carried with the swirl, with such great ease
a heart that is heavy yet, at times light
but it weaves on till you invite
stops for a moment to caress your chimes
beautiful music with you in rhymes
does not know which direction to go
so it rides safely in the ebb's flow
swirls over shores, mountains, and streets
elevates then descends without a greet
gust as it feels tormented pain
spilling its happiness throughout the drain
once again fills and jumps back in warm stream
rippling with its destiny to find the dream


"...the rest is silence" (Hamlet)       Shakespeare
