Thank you for the honor and your hard work.
Heart’s Dialogue
Oh heart!
If you could speak
What would you say? A beat,
Two, three, a squeak,
A tweet, a butterfly’s wing
Swings in soaring flight
Letting the beats sing
Their song of freedom, bright
Diurnal light shimmers
In flight a beat of harmony
Starting within, speakers
Belt out optimism’s loyalty
To faith, Belief, humanity
Wearing blinders to pressures,
Social, career, imitators, honesty
That seems to be researchers
Of one’s identity in a world
Teaming with too much variety
Of labels that grind and bind
Our conformity into piety,
While the heart stomps
Into a tamtrum of morality
That doesn’t blend but clamps
Its hold, trying to drown your honesty.
Let your heart speak
It won’t steer you in directions
That deepen the morass that’s belak,
Rather to happiness filled adulation.
