As with all of life's ponderings
I wonder how,at the same time
my heart can be both happy and
sad, hurting so bad
Happy when I sit on my porch
and see the birds going to nest as
another sunset of beauty puts my
mind at rest
Sad because relationships are not
what they should be, and the world
is in confusion blanketing us all
with delusion
Wondering how we can keep putting
on a happy face while the whole
human race is turning one against
another cursing their brother
Needing someone to share kindness
with, but finding we are all distracted
with things amiss, and so we each find
peace only as dreams increase
Wanting to take part in life instead, it
has become, the very thing we are in
retreat from, so we hurry to our solitude
in which we sit to write and brood
The more I contemplate, the more I ask
is it our fate, to be so cut off from our
families for we see things they don't see, and do we leave our friends behind for we are of a different mind
Happy for the meanderings of the mind that help me find, that heavenly highway I had for a time put away, the celestial family that awaits
with open arms, does no harm, love abounds in angelic sounds...
A happy sad heart~
Sheer perfection is delivered to us in "A Heart in Two Parts" - excellent my friend!!

Peace.
it has been so long, but...
oh, this poem, it, with its 'happy'/sad/ heart ...
this is all too true, I so relate in my way and you are an Inspiration in showing me that, well, that with all this speaks of so eloquently, so painfully much truth...well, you soar with hope as you wander down through the depth of this world/life and find such hope in spirit and more...
Oh, Thank You for this, sigh... you have such a way, this both affects me and inspires, oh to have the strength of spirit you give, here...the 'happy' heart side and, forgive, I ramble, but I Thank you
E., yes! as well!~
