If I Could Write My Heart


If I could write my heart
like the beauty of a
Rembrandt or perhaps
of a symphony of
the finest masters,
I would write a
pallet of colors
and an orchestra
of sounds for the
world to see and hear.

If I could write my heart
it might be of the breathtaking
beauty of a tide breaking
along the shorelines
under a moonlight sky,
or perhaps it would be
of a sunset against
a backdrop of mountains
rising as two lovers
gaze upon the stars
from below, together
for the first time.

If I could write my heart
per chance it would be
of gentle breezes
touching the face
of a loved one
so far away
as they listen to
the sounds of a
heart beating in the
distance.

If I could write my heart
of love that touches
my spirit and weaves
it's warmth into my soul.......
I would write~ of you.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

you write your heart in each line! always a treat and delight to read you hugssss sister luv you

I don’t want the world to see me
cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken I just want you to know who I am

Donna,
As usual, Nancy Lee is right! Well done.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
