Love Poem: A Healthy Heart

A Healthy Heart

Sometimes the 
lines between
happiness and sorrow
love and hate 
are thin (barely visible
to the naked heart) – 

(a healthy heart 
needing more than 
a steady-beat
to be truly healthy) – 

hearts not created 
merely for pumping;
nor for expressing 
exclusively within 
the Body-visceral
while excluding 
the vaster realm
of metaphysical being

(confined within a cage of bone)

(drowning in its own
oxygen rich fluids)

No, the heart truly
reaches out -- beyond
muscular attributes:

exceeds surface 
perimeters of flesh 
and blood – 

transcending
the core-less Atheist
concept, absent a 
spirit and soul
for greater inspiration…

refutes the materialist, 
who sees only 
superficial reality,
excluding the essence 
of divine interaction
and miraculous manifestation –

The heart I speak
stretches the rulers
of medical Measures – 

remains an enigma to science,
and by contrast -- the light
apposing dark-sided men 
who reject Christian-unity daily

as did those prosecutors 
of The Son of Man

who rejected Christ love 
and His revelation 
of Divine Source
and Holy Trinity….
