My Heart

 

My heart is so full these days.  Life presents so much richness all mixed up with joy and sorrow.
This heart is mine.
It is a gift from my cousin who wrote such a precious note with it saying when I looked in the
mirror on the other side I'd see the face of love looking back at me.
It is hard to speak of this without tears because her time here is getting very short.
This heart is mine.
My sister's son and his wife are expecting their first baby, my great niece or nephew.  So I
will become a great auntie, to my delight.
Life starting again and bringing its wonders to us all.
This heart is mine.
And now I can share it with someone who knows what to do with it.
It is hard to speak of this without tears because I have waited so long.
Life is starting again and bringing its wonders to me.
This heart is mine and it is for sharing and I do
I DO.
