Poetry Day: Heart Forms

Yahoo Image Search

(This was another poem where I just wanted to have fun.  We certainly use the word ‘heart’ for a lot of things.)

I agree whole-heartedly

With all the bleeding hearts

That a broken heart can scar

Becoming a heavy heart

Forcing one to pour the heart out

Bloody tears creating a cold heart

It is a hardened heart of ice

A heart worn upon the sleeve

Refusing to open the heart

Lest someone steal the heart

Risking a change of heart

That could bloom from the bottom of one’s heart

About Charles Yallowitz

Charles E. Yallowitz was born, raised, and educated in New York. Then he spent a few years in Florida, realized his fear of alligators, and moved back to the Empire State. When he isn't working hard on his epic fantasy stories, Charles can be found cooking or going on whatever adventure his son has planned for the day. 'Legends of Windemere' is his first series, but it certainly won't be his last.

    If I can use some humor at first, the meme reminds me of that “Pizza is the essence of life” quote from the every pop punk vocalist video on YouTube. Yes, I’m also aware of THAT Shrek meme, too.

    In all seriousness, this was a realistic take on emotions.
