Journey to the Heart, a poem (89800031)
Journey to the Heart
Wonderful, long-held secrets abound in your heart
They patiently await you
Open the door
Enter with honesty, and
trust whatever that honesty brings
Discover, unwrap
the many unopened presents
awaiting you at your heart’s door
Take them inside
Open them
Allow the love they contain to grow
Rediscover the many gifts of love
that have filled your heart
throughout your lifetime
Revel in their beauty
Live in their promise
that once a gift of love has been given
It is always with you
Love is what we all come back to
For some of us, it has taken longer
to realize that love is
what we really are
For some of us
our entire journey in life
has been about discovering the secrets
that lie buried deep in the cave of our hearts
It’s not a long journey, really
when you’re ready
The heart requires no reservations
to visit what it holds
Getting there can be as simple as
floating on a lotus blossom
on the still waters of your soul
