Seeing this image titled Searching For Just One Good Heart… by myoriginalsin inspired me to write The Heart Tree. She has allowed me to post her wonderful picture to accompany my poem.

The Heart Tree
I once happened upon a heart tree
And had to pick the perfect
bloom for me

I knew as soon as I saw
that heart, oh yes it is he
It called out I am yours, if you will choose it to be

So, I danced my way to it
and reached up to pluck
it from the tree
No doubt, no worry
I knew that heart was meant for me

I was right because that heart
was yours, you see
And now I am blessed with your love and oh how I love thee
