Heart

Beating boldly when I see you
and jumping with joy
Racing relentlessly when I'm running
and shouting eager elation

Flutterig fearfully when all goes bleak
and missing multiple beats
Swelling and soaring with pride
when triumph tears down walls

Shrinking in my cheerless chest
when loneliness looms
Soaring and skipping in symphony
because we are wonderously worthy
of peace and powers
hining in the shadowy sky
showering silently upon us
shooting stars
shimmering silvery
in my heavely heart
