The Heart Knows The heart knows the way, the ride of it is a memory that fragrance from recall squeezes from out of a tree, then a sound vibrating with voice caught within my own, to say that life continues and love is forever. To say, you just might find what you are looking for in the nights melting across the sky in color that screams listen to your heart. ______ In memory of a dear friend To decorate this aging |
